At the Great Vigil of Easter we sit in the darkened church to hear a number of Bible readings, then go out into the churchyard to light the Paschal Candle from a fire pit. The candle is carried into the church while the Exsultet is sung by a single voice, proclaiming the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
