The Christ candle burned bright in its jar. Behind it is the Murray River, with NSW shore on the otherside, but the red bank behind that is back in Victoria, due to the meandering of the river.
Burce and Merle, Jenny and Ian, light the small candles in glass bowls. A beautiful sight in the pre dawn darkness.
Enjoying the fellowship over hot cross buns.

Nyah Boat Ramp was again the setting for an Ecumenical Easter Dawn service. We gathered in the dark and lit the Christ Candle, and then the small candles in glass bowls that gave light to our service sheets. Sylvia Bail gave the reflection, about the crosses we carry. Dawn broke as the service continued with birdsong and hymns and communion. We toasted hot cross buns on the first fire, and enjoyed catching up with people from surrounding areas.
