The Easter Vigil, also called the Paschal Vigil or the Great Vigil of Easter, is a service held in many Christian churches as the first official celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus. Historically, it is during this service that people (especially adults) are baptized and that adult catechumens are received into full communion with the Church. It is held in the hours of darkness between sunset on Holy Saturday and sunrise on Easter Day-most commonly in the evening of Holy Saturday-but is considered to be the first celebration of Easter Day, since the Christian tradition considers feasts- and other days of observance where Masses are celebrated- to begin at sunset of the previous day.
