Easter Vigil 2024

The Easter Vigil was celebrated on Saturday, March 30, 2024. During the Easter Vigil the Church keeps watch and celebrates Christ's Resurrection, his passing from death to life. The Mass begins outside with the blessing of the Easter fire and the lighting of the Easter candle. At this Mass the sacraments of Baptism, First Holy Communion, and Confirmation are celebrated for those entering the Church. This year we had 10 individuals receive one or more of the Sacraments of Initiation at the Easter Vigil.
