About the event
A Service of hope and new light, as dusk falls and we mark the start of Easter.
From earliest times, Christians have gathered through this most Holy Night. At our service we will light the Easter fire, bringing it into church in the form of the Paschal Candle; announcing the resurrection, we will recall God’s saving work, from creation through to the resurrection and celebrate the first Eucharist of Easter.
