Light a Candle


 

Lighting a candle is a prayer: when we have gone it stays alight,

 

kindling in the hearts and minds of others the prayers we have already offered for the sick,

 

the suffering, for those who have died, for the peace of the world,

 

for ourselves and prayers of thankfulness too.

 

 Mary Chapel Votives

A votive candle, or a prayer candle may be lit as an offering of your prayer intention for another person, living or dead. By creating light, you are petitioning the Lord in prayer, or a saint for intercession, to pray with us and for us, to God.

The electronic votive candles are located in the Mary Chapel located by the front entrance of the church. The votive remains lit for a period of 2 days. Suggested donation for each candle is $1.00.
