Since the early centuries, Christians have marked the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord by blessing candles for use in church and home. All who celebrate the daily Masses at 6:30, 8:30 and Noon will be able to take a candle home. One per family, please. to use during the year for special celebrations on birthdays, anniversaries and feast days. In this way, we can keep the seasons of the year together in the Light of Christ, a Light no darkness can overpower.
