Easter Vigils and Easter Day

Vicar General Jan Clark writes: The St Margaret's Church family have greeted the risen Christ at Sunrise on Brighton Beach on Easter morning for the last 10 or 12 years. We then go back to the church for communion and breakfast. This year the river has taken over most of the access to the beach and it was a "bring your umbrella" kind of morning.
