Be sure to check out our carved baptism and wedding candles. Through Exsultet Candles' founder and chandler Chris Ledwich combines a passion for design and theology into uniquely and prayerfully crafted sacred candles. Throughout the Church’s history candles have had a special place in many of her rites & liturgies, and in the prayers and devotions of the faithful. A powerful symbol of the light o
f Christ dispelling the darkness of sin, candles have a profound and unique capacity to make the Gospel message directly manifest to our senses. It is our mission at Exsultet Candles to enhance and magnify the inherit meaning of our candles through faithful and symbolically rich designs. In this mission we take as our guiding principles the divine transcendental values of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness – transcendental in that each participates intrinsically in the other (e.g. the more true and good a thing, the more apparent is its beauty), and divine in that they each find their source, unity, and perfection in the Most Holy Trinity. "On this, your night of grace, O holy Father,
accept this candle, a solemn offering,
the work of bees and of your servants' hands,
an evening sacrifice of praise,
this gift from your most holy Church."
