Tonight was the Great Vigil of Easter at Good Shepherd, and it was absolutely beautiful. While it’s not the most attended service of the year, it IS the climax of the church year. Beginning in the prayer labyrinth with a fire to light the paschal candle which leads us in procession into the darkness of the church where we hear passages of Scripture and songs that tell the history of salvation, before then renewing our baptismal vows and proclaiming the arrival of Easter, it’s a packed and rich service!
