What is this candle for? Why? How?
Easter candles are lit in churches, to celebrate the Resurrection of Lord Jesus Christ, three days after crucifiction. Christians associate Jesus with the light from candles, hailing him as "the eternal light", referring the way from death to life. The candlelight ushers driving away the gloom of darkness. Easter candle is sometimes referred to as Paschal candle or Christ candle.
The Paschal candle is a large, pink in some cases candle used liturgically in the Western Rite of Christianity (Roman Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran, etc.). A new Paschal candle is blessed and lit every year at Easter, and is used throughout the Paschal season and then throughout the year on special occasions.
Meaning of the Paschal candle
The flame of the Paschal candle symbolizes Christ as light of the world and his presence in the midst of his people.
