The 73rd annual Easter Dawn Service at Fawn Lake will be held on Sunday, March 31, at 6:30am on the shores of Fawn Lake, at the end of Sweetwater Avenue in Bedford. Lay representatives from many of Bedford’s churches—including this year’s coordinating parish, St. Paul’s Episcopal, and the service’s originator, First Church of Christ (UCC)—are organizing and will lead the service early on Easter morning. Music will be provided by longtime Bedford residents Bob McClatchey on accordion and Roy Kring on trumpet.

All are welcome to the service. Attendees are also invited to an Easter breakfast following the service, from 7:15am to 9:00am at First Church of Chris, 25 Great Road.

In case of inclement weather, the service will be held at St. Paul’s Episcopal, 100 Pine Hill Road.
