Candle light services

Are any other churches having candle light services?

Yeah, but I wouldn't go.

Re: Candle light services

I have never been to one.
I have always wanted to sing Christmas Carols by candle light!

I never had been to one either until last night. Our church did one and it turned out beautifully.

Re: Candle light services

Yes, we're doing one this coming Sunday.

I've only been to one in my whole life, and it was a candlelit communion service. I loved it. It felt so intimate and special. And the music was all acoustic or acapella--which was a refreshing change.

Re: Candle light services

I would love it! However here in Brazil candles are associated with the Catholic and Spiritist religions...

Our church does it, but I'd stay home.

Re: Candle light services

So what's your problem with it that you'd stay home?
