Easter at Nyah

Nyah2At 6am on Easter Morning at Nyah Boat ramp the Easter Fire was alight and a group of faithful Christians of various denominations gathered in the dark with candles.

Nyah3Geoff Bradbury preached a great sermon on how all the people in the gospels ‘just didn’t get it’ when Jesus was crucified.  Only on that first Easter Morning, when the disciples discovered the empty tomb and the folded grave cloths did they finally start to make sense of it all.  After the sermon we shared communion and sang the last rousing hymn.

Nyah9Then the fire was used to toast hot cross buns.  The mist on the river rose slowly and eddied up stream.  Eventually the sun broke through the trees and the mist.

Later at Nyah West Anglican Church we celebrated Easter in a more traditional setting.  Nyah West1

Merle read the bible readings and Rev Jan Nyah West4celebrated the Easter Eucharist.
