Candles in the Church represent the presence of Jesus Christ and the need for all of us to w
alk in the grace of Jesus Christ, which dispels the darkness of unbelief and sin.
A votive light signifies our prayer offered in faith coming into the light of God. With the light of faith, we petition our Lord in prayer, or petition a saint to pray with us and for us to the Lord. The light also shows a special reverence and our desire to remain present to the Lord in prayer even though we may depart and go about our daily business.
While the church is closed, a Priest will light a candle for you and pray for your intentions. A donation of $4 per candle is requested. You may either download a form to mail or drop off at the parish, or fill out the online request form.
