St Peter and St Paul Church (Parking available at Mint Street or Crown Court carparks), Borough Road Godalming, GU7 2AG, United Kingdom

The blessing of the new fire, the lighting of the Easter Candle
and the renewal of Baptismal vows

The Church is in darkness as was Calvary when Christ died on the cross. As God in the Old Testament made His presence known by the sign of a pillar of fire, so fire now represents the return of Christ, the light of the world, from the darkness of the grave.
