Those few moments for quiet prayer can become a central part of feeling connected to God, ourselves and to others. This is true, even when those we pray for are no longer with us.

Lighted candles give us a feeling of warmth and comfort when we feel burdened.

In taking time to light a candle and pray, you can take the opportunity to reflect and pray in the moment.

A candle can be lit as a prayer for our own internal pain as a request for healing.

You may light a prayer candle for yourself, another person, or for a situation.

At Knock Shrine, we offer you the opportunity to light a candle online from anywhere in the world. For every request we receive, a real candle with be lit at our outdoor candelabra.
