Great Vigil of Easter on Saturday, April 23, from 7:30 pm to 9 pm, at Episcopal Church of the Messiah, located at 614 N. Bush St., in Santa Ana.
The Great Vigil (in English). This ancient liturgy is the principal Easter celebration. We begin in the patio blessing a new fire and a new paschal candle. We process into the dark church bearing candles with the Christ light. We listen to the promises of redemption from scripture lessons. We baptize new members into the family of Jesus. With the Easter acclamation, we ring the bells we have brought, lights, incense and glorious music acclaim the resurrection of Jesus and we celebrate the first Eucharist of Easter with the Parish Choir and a Brass Quartet. Festive champagne reception follows in the Parish Hall.
Celebrate Easter this Sunday at Santa Ana’s historic First Baptist Church, featuring Pastor Andy Quient.
