Meaning of easter vigil :

 

The liturgy we celebrate on Holy Saturday evening, the third and most important of the three central liturgies the entire Church year we call the Triduum. It is celebrated after sundown and includes four rites: The liturgy of Light, where we bless a new Easter candle and sing a hymn to the risen Christ, the light who conquers all darkness, the liturgy of the Word, where we listen to the whole story of salvation from creation through the covenants with Abraham and Moses, to the new covenant promised by the prophets and its fulfillment in Jesus Christ, the liturgy of Baptism, where new members are initiated into the Church, and the liturgy of the Eucharist, our first celebration of Easter that year.
