About the event
Begin Easter morning in a powerful and memorable way at St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church in Sterling, Virginia.
Our Outdoor Easter Sunrise Service begins around a blazing Paschal fire as darkness slowly turns to light and we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This peaceful and meaningful service includes prayer, worship, and Holy Communion as the sun rises over the church grounds.
Many people say this is one of the most beautiful services of the entire year.
After the service, everyone is invited to stay for a relaxed Easter brunch in the Parish Hall, a wonderful time to connect with friends and celebrate together.
If you’ve never experienced Easter at sunrise before, this is a beautiful year to try it.
