Easter Vigil

One of the ideas I love, but rarely do, is the Easter Vigil. I tend to read the scriptures, but actually getting out and organizing the worship or attending it seems a bit much. Yet I still love the idea of spending time in silence and meditation and recounting the whole of creation history during the day. So here are some scripture from a lectionary for those who want to participate in thinking about easter for the day.
