I do think if Jesus used the Candle as a symbol, an object lesson if you will, than it wouldn't be harmful to use it once a year as well.
We've never had a candle lit service, to my knowledge, but it would be neat to have once in a while.
In one church we worked in, the youth choir sang "Carry your Candle" and each held a candle. I didn't see any harm in that whatsoever. It was simply reiterating the object lesson Jesus taught himself.
Now if they asked me to pay to light a candle for my sick loved one, I'd have a problem!!!
