Christmas Candles
Thursday, December 18th, 2008Around Christmastide, it is a common custom to place candles in the windows of houses at nighttime. For many people, this may just be decoration, but it is an meaningful and noble tradition. A house with candles is a beacon in the darkness; a shelter for travelers and the homeless.
