Easter is the day that commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The traditional observation of Easter starts with the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday night. This is the most important liturgy of each year. It starts in complete darkness and the Easter fire is blessed. This is when Easter Candles are lit – they are a symbolism of the Lord, Jesus Christ’s resurrection.
While there are a large number of companies manufacturing Palm Sunday Candles, not many offer the unique combination of hand-crafted pieces made using top quality wax, at very competitive prices. We at Prilep Candles are a premier company in this space and offer these traditional candles in different colours and varieties.
These candles can be lit to celebrate the sacred ceremony during Easter. These candles are stunning and become a great addition for your Easter brunch or dinner table as well. While many people stick to the traditional hand-crafted twisted candles, many also like to square and round tapered candles.
We manufacture a wide variety of these and you will truly be spoiled for choice. Not only do our Orthodox Easter Candles come in a range of colours and designs but have a variety of embellishments too. When you choose to buy any Prilep products, you’re assured of high-quality unique candles that will add a special touch to your Easter celebrations,
Paschal Candles
These candles are special because of the blessings they receive during the Easter Vigil. They receive blessings right through the Easter season as well as throughout the year. They symbolise the presence of the Lord, Jesus Christ and what he achieves for us. These candles are specially prepared for the service during the Easter Vigil. The church gathers around the Easter fire on Holy Saturday Night to begin this vigil, which is also when the Easter Fire is blessed and Paschal Candles are lit.
Paschal Candles may also be referred to as ‘Christ Candles’ or ‘Easter Candles’. The term “Paschal” is derived from the word Pesach, which means Passover in Hebrew. It refers to the Paschal mystery of salvation. These tall white candles look impressive and signify the Divine pillar of fire by night and the pillar of cloud during the daytime that led the Israelites in Egypt in their departure from slavery.
For any church that celebrates the Easter Vigil Black Saturday night, lighting the Paschal candle is a ceremonial gesture that is also considered to be one of the most solemn and sombre moments of this service. Paschal Candles are typically much larger than standard candles lighted in church during other times of the year. They also have some symbol decorations on them.
