Easter Vigil 2021
During this Vigil in anticipation of Our Lord’s Resurrection at midnight we begin outside in the darkness by lighting the Paschal Fire. Then we carry the Light of the World in through His Candle which is praised in the exquisite praeconium called the Exsultet. Prophetic readings and the Litany of the Saints ready us for the making of the baptismal water and finally the solemn Baptism of our catechumens. Mass begins and we join with the neophytes as they receive their first Holy Communions. Happy Easter.
