We begin in darkness as a new fire is lit, Walking into church carrying candles lit from the new Paschal Candle. We hear the ancient hymn "The Exultet". This is followed by stories from the Old Testament before we hear for the first time the Gospel announcing Jesus' resurrection. We renew our baptism vows and commitments to the resurrected Lord - and then finish with something suitably wine like to begin our Easter celebrations.
