Скачать или смотреть Vigil at the Holy Sepulcher. Easter in Jerusalem!

The light of the blessed candle, the ringing of the bells, the Gloria and the Hallelujah. It is Easter in Jerusalem!
As per tradition at the Holy Sepulcher, the Easter Vigil is celebrated on Saturday morning in front of the empty tomb.

A special liturgy that begins with the blessing of the new fire before the Anointing Stone. The Paschal candle is lit with a flame from the Tomb and this light spreads throughout the Basilica. The readings tell the story of salvation and alternate with the psalms and the singing of the Gloria.
Finally, the blessing of water and the renewal of baptismal promises.

Presiding over the celebration was H.B. Pierbattista Pizzaballa, Patriarch of Jerusalem of the Latins, together with bishops and priests from various parts of the world. Also present were numerous pilgrims and local Christians.
