Sanctuary Lamp Burning For Intentions

Sanctuary Lamp Burning For Intentions

Starting this first week of Advent, the Sanctuary Lamp will burn in honor of Parishioner intentions. The Sanctuary Lamp is the red lamp next to Jesus in the Tabernacle. It is the fulfillment of Leviticus 6:13, which reads, “Fire shall be kept burning upon the Altar continually; it shall not go out.” This fire was to be kept next to the Arc of the Covenant as a mini-sacrifice for the people. (Exodus 27:20-21.)

Now, just as the Mass is offered for all and yet the Priest has a special intention, so too, the Sanctuary Lamp burns for all, but can carry a special intention. The first week of Advent’s Sanctuary Lamp will burn in honor of St. Patrick’s kids and youth.

If you would like to request the Sanctuary Lamp burn in honor of a specific intention or for a specific person, please contact the Parish Office. It’s customary to give a $5 donation, but this is not required.
