Parish Sanctuary 

This beautiful votive stands in the corner of the church sanctuary.   The light of the candle is a symbol of faith, truth, wisdom, virtue, grace, the divine life, charity, the ardor of prayer and the sacred presence which flow from Christ Himself. 

Here, as in early Christian times, we light a candle before a statue or sacred image of our Lord or of a saint.  Of course, we do not honor the statue or the image itself, but the one whom that statue or image represents. The light signifies our prayer offered in faith coming into the light of God.  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.
