The Presentation of the Lord (Malachi 3:1-4 Hebrews 2:14-18 Luke 2: 22-40)

Lighting candles

All religions use candles. In the home, candles can create intimacy, and help us to celebrate. Jesus called himself ‘the light of the world’. His words and actions shone the light of truth on the darkness of sin. At our children’s baptism we were called to be a ‘light’ for them. May our couple love be light in the world?
