There is no celebration of the Eucharist on this day.
When there is a Liturgy of the word, the Celebrant begins with the Collect of the Day
O God, Creator of heaven and earth: Grant that, as the crucified body of your dear Son was laid in the tomb and rested on this holy Sabbath, so we may await with him the coming of the third day, and rise with him to newness of life; who now lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Old Testament Job 14:1-14
Psalm 130, or 31:1-5
Epistle 1 Peter 4:1-8
Gospel Matthew 27:57-66, or John 19:38-42
After the Gospel (and homily), in place of the Prayers of the People, the Anthem "In the midst of life" (1 or 2) is sung or said.
The service then concludes with the Lord's Prayer and the Grace.
