Candles! Candles! Candles!

We are decorating candles in adult forum this Sunday! (February 2).
This Sunday is the Presentation of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Temple, aka known as Candlemas.  At this time, we commemorate the presentation of Jesus and the purification of Mary in the Jerusalem Temple, as well as the occasion of Simeon and Anna meeting Jesus. By the 7th century, Candlemas included lighting and blessing candles, procession and singing the Nunc dimittis. We have plenty of candles, large and small, to decorate.  If you have scissors to cut the colorful sheets of wax, please bring them.  Emily will bring some extras.
