Votive Candles

Votive Candles represent a symbolic expression of reverence and petition before our God. In ancient times, people of all faiths would offer burnt sacrfices to their dieties. This practice was especially true in ancient Israel and was an important and required element of the Jewish faith. In later times, Christianity adopted this sacrificial expression and incorporated it into popular piety. Today, most Catholic and mainstream protestant churches have a special area in their sanctuaries, reserved for the lighting of votive candles. Take time to browse our selections, below. Our votive candles are available in different burning sizes to accomodate your worship requirements.
