THE GIFT OF LIGHT
Receive hope and peace through the meditative prayer request of a vigil candle.
Candles are symbolic prayer offerings to remember a deceased love one, request a special intention, or commemorate an event. Vigil candles at the Shrine represent a spiritual pilgrimage or prayer devotion through the intercession of Mary and her Miraculous Medal.
