Light a Candle
“I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
—John 8:12
7-Day Candle

Upon entering an Orthodox church, it is customary to light candles and offer prayers for one’s personal needs or that of a family member or friend. Candles are lit before icons as a sign of one’s faith and hope in God’s help, help that is always sent to all who turn to Him and His Saints with faith and prayers. In practice, when lighting a candle in Church, the faithful usually make a small offering to the Church. By lighting a candle and offering a prayer, one enters into closer contact with the Church and her ministry to the faithful, invisibly warming the soul by the visible light of the candle.

Saturday of Souls Koliva 2022
The tradition of our Holy Orthodox Church is to always remember our departed loved ones. Although they are gone, they are not forgotten. We, as the members of the Church offer prayers that up being beneficial to both us and to the deceased.
The Custom of Koliva
When the Memorial Service is offered, it is customary for the family of the deceased to bring a dish of boiled wheat to the Church. The wheat, known as Koliva, is a symbol of the Resurrection. When speaking of the Resurrection, our Lord said: “Unless the grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone, but if it dies it bears much fruit.” —John 12:24
PLEASE INCLUDE THE NAMES OF YOUR DEPARTED LOVED ONES IN THE ADDITIONAL INFO FIELD DURING CHECKOUT.
