Candles Blessed at the Purification fill the night on All Saints Day
BLESSED CANDLES FOR ALL SAINTS
Reminder to locate your candles you had blessed on the Purification. At dusk on the evening of ALL SAINTS, you will extinguish the lights in your house and light a candle blessed at the Feast of the Purification. The family will kneel around the candle (on a table) and recite the rosary for the souls of the dead (since this is the Vigil of All Souls Day). The men will lead the rosary and the women will say the responses. The church's bells will begin to toll at dusk to remind the Faithful to take part in this observance.
