Feast of the Presentation of the Lord/ Flame of Love Devotion

This morning at St. Thomas’ Church, we joyfully celebrated the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord in the Temple, united with the Flame of Love Devotion. Like Simeon and Anna, we came with expectant hearts to encounter Christ, the Light of the world, who dispels darkness and fills us with hope.

The blessing of candles before the Mass reminded us that we are called to carry Christ’s light into our homes, our communities, and the world. Through the Flame of Love Devotion, our prayer was renewed, that the fire of God’s love may burn more deeply within us and spread to all whom we meet.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in prayer this morning and helped make this celebration so meaningful. May the light of Christ continue to guide our steps, strengthen our faith, and set our hearts aflame with love.

“My eyes have seen your salvation, a light for revelation to the nations.” (Luke 2:30–32)
