Outdoor Easter Vigil Experience

This is the Night! An Outdoor Easter Vigil Experience

Join us on Saturday, April 3, for a special outdoor Easter Vigil experience. You are welcome to arrive anytime between 7:30 and 8:00 pm as you will move through the experience at your own pace.

This progressive, experiential time for prayer and worship will include locations for each of the four parts of our Easter Vigil Worship: Light, Word, Baptism, and Meal. Individual households will travel together to each of the worship locations (in the east parking lot) for a reflection on that portion of the service and interaction with the resources there. Communion will be celebrated at the final location.

Pre-registration is requested but not required. All attendees must wear a mask and social distance the entire time they are on Reformation property. At check-in all households will need to confirm a health check.

These plans are contingent upon the weather and upon the COVID incidence and positivity rate as well as adherence to all local and state restrictions for groups. Please contact a pastor or the deacon with any questions.

Pre-Register for This is the Night!

THIS IS THE NIGHT

 

THIS IS THE NIGHT in which, in ancient times, you delivered our forebears, the children of Israel, and led them, dry-shod, through the Red Sea.

THIS IS THE NIGHT in which the darkness of sin has been purged away by the rising brightness.

THIS IS THE NIGHT in which all who believe in Christ are rescued from evil and the gloom of sin, are renewed in grace and holiness, and are restored to holiness.

THIS IS THE NIGHT in which, breaking the chains of death, Christ arises from hell in triumph.
