Christ our light! Alleluia!

The Paschal Candle (which burns at all our services between Easter Sunday and Pentecost) is a powerful symbol of the light of the Risen Christ. The candle was first lit as these words were said:

May the light of Christ, rising in glory, dispel the darkness of our hearts and minds.

This is a good prayer!
