He also had a nice homily on The Presentation and Christ as the Light of the World.

We lite them for the entrance procession and the initial prayers of the Mass, and then extinguished them, leaving, of course, lots of candle left to take home. They're beeswax, too, so they smell WONDERFUL!~Katherine~https://www.blogger.com/profile/12138257993961072758noreply@blogger.com
