SUNRISE SERVICES
For many families, Easter tradition begins with sunrise service. There are two large, outdoor venues to choose from as well as an indoor service this year on Easter morning:

Vasquez Rocks
661-269-2515
Public service begins promptly at 5:00 AM and the limited chairs fill up early, so bring a blanket. The resurrection is timed to coincide with sunrise. Family Community Church of Agua Dulce, Christian Church of Agua Dulce, Living Springs Four-square Church and Acton Faith Bible Church host this annual event. The dramatic presentation includes more than 60 costumed actors. Dress warmly, and bring towels to mop up the chairs from the morning dew.

For those who are not particularly keen on being somewhere this early, a special presentation will be added this year at 3:30 the Saturday prior to Easter.
