Easter Vigil at St. Mary’s Norwalk, Part 3

Posted by Stuart Chessman 

The Easter Vigil at St. Mary’s Church, Norwalk, CT.

This series begins at Part 1

The acolytes prepare the altar for the festive Mass of Easter.
Toward the end of the Litany, the celebrant and ministers return.  
The Mass of the Easter Vigil, due to its extreme antiquity, has no Introit, but instead the Litany is concluded with the solemn recitation of the Kyrie.
The celebrant intones the Gloria.  The church bells are sounded throughout, the first time they have been heard since Maundy Thursday, and the images of the church are uncovered.
