A lit candle symbolizes our prayers rising to God. Votive candles are placed before statues and in candle stands to indicate our prayer -- perhaps to remember a loved one, seek a saint's intercession, or express our gratitude to God.  A sanctuary lamp indicates the presence of the Blessed Sacrament.

Those in candle ministry replace the burnt candles and sanctuary lamps. They also clean the candle stands.
