Set of Three Candles from the Holy Land

These candles were blessed on the Stone of Anointing at Jerusalem’s Temple of the Holy Sepulcher and may be lit in devotional hours or for spiritual reflection at home. Each candle symbolizes one of the three cities that have the greatest spiritual significance for the events described in the New Testament: Bethlehem, where Jesus Christ was born because his parents had to travel there for a census; Nazareth – the home city of the Holy Mother, where the Savior spent his youth, where His first sermon was preached and His first miracle performed when he turned water into wine; the Heavenly City of Jerusalem – the city where Our Lord stayed for a long period of time, was crucified for our sins and resurrected. The three candles are placed into an elegant package featuring the views of the main holy places of Bethlehem, Nazareth and Jerusalem — Church of the Nativity, The Annunciation Temple and the cross above the Temple of the Holy Sepulcher’s dome. This set will be a great gift idea for your friends and family.
