The Great Vigil of Easter

Clic sur l'image pour l'agrandir

BERJAYAThe Paschal Candle for the new church year is lit at the beginning of the Great Vigil of Easter at St. Mark's Lutheran, San Francisco. The acolyte bearing the lighted candle leads the procession from the plaza outside the church into the darkened nave. The service is illuminated at first only by candles lit from the Paschal candle. As the service continues, the lights gradually are raised, symbolic of Christ's resurrection. Alleluia! Christ is risen! Alleluia! Christ is risen indeed!
