Commemoration Slips

As is customary in the Orthodox tradition, the proskomedia is served to commemorate the names of our loved ones; for the health of the living and for the souls of the departed.

Now you can submit your list of names online to be commemorated during a specified liturgy, which will be streaming Live on Facebook.

The Candle

Blessed Simeon of Thessalonica (15th century), commentator on the Liturgy, states that pure wax symbolizes the purity and chastity of those who offer it. It is offered as a sign of our having repented of stubbornness and self-will. The softness and pliability of wax speaks of our readiness to obey God. The burning of the candle represents man's deification, his becoming a new creature through the fire of God's love.
