The light received in the early hours of Pascha is our symbol of the Resurrection. It is our reminder that Christ illumines the dark path. It is our source of hope, strength and especially, victory. The light unites us as a community of faith and a family of believers. We hold the light because we confess the risen Christ. We raise the light because we proclaim His victory. We keep the light because an enduring flame is a lasting reminder of what has taken place. A light squelched by carelessness of by an intentional act of defiance is the reminder that sin is ever present and the devil continues to stalk his prey.
