The Presentation of the Lord
The Church celebrates the solemn Feast of the Presentation of the Lord on Feb. 2. This feast recalls the day on which Jesus Christ was presented in the temple by Mary and Joseph. In accordance with the liturgy for the day, special candles will be blessed at Mass for the faithful to take home and use. The candles will be blessed in a special ritual with a procession at the 4:00 p.m. Mass on Saturday, February 2. The blessed candles may be obtained after the Mass for a donation of $4 for a box of two “Candlemas” candles.
