The Christmas Candle
Buy a large white candle and decorate it with symbols for Christ. Use old Christmas cards, sequins, holly, etc.
Light the candle on Christmas Eve to show that the Light of the World has arrived. Continue to light the Christ candle throughout
the year at Sunday dinner to remind your family of our waiting for Christ, as well as celebrating His birth and Resurrection.
Merry Christmas
