Light a candle

In the candle, the flame is the power of his divinity.

The offering of a burning candle before our altars and shrines is an act of prayer to God, our Blessed Mother, or the Saints.

Light a candle prayer

Lord,

May this candle be the light for you to enlighten me in my difficulties and decisions.

May it be a fire for you to burn out of me all pride, selfishness and impurity.

May it be a flame for you to bring warmth into my heart towards my family, my neighbors and all those who meet me.

Through the prayers of Mary, Virgin and Mother I place in your care those I wish to remember.

With this candle, I give you something of myself. Help me to to bring my prayer into everything I do.

Amen
