Root Candles Sanctuary Lights

The use of Sanctuary Lights can be traced to the Book of Exodus in the Old Testament, when a light was always burning within the Temple to honor God.  The use of Sanctuary Lights in Roman Catholic Churches dates to the 12th Century and shines permanently to indicate to all who visit, that Jesus is present in the Blessed Sacrament in the Tabernacle.  Orthodox, Episcopalian and Lutheran Churches also honor the Real Presence of the Lord with a burning Sanctuary Light.
