Happy Easter!

Sofia, 8 April 2007
Midnight Easter Vigil
Light traces drawn by the candles of believers as they walk around the Alexander Newsky Cathedral in a cross-procession around the church, part of the Midnight Easter service. This is done to commemorate the journey of the myrrh-bearing women, the followers of Jesus who came to his tomb and found it empty. The procession stops in front of the closed church doors and the hymn of resurrection is sung: "Christ is risen from the dead, and by his death he has trampled upon death and has given life to those who are in the tombs." The "tomb is found empty", the bells are ringing, the church is filled with light and the service takes on a joyous Easter atmosphere. People greet one another, saying: "Christ is risen!" which is answered: "indeed he is!"
