The Family Círio becomes part of the lives of devotees.

We are living through the Easter season in the church, still impacted and marked by the resurrection of Jesus. And for the celebration of the Easter Vigil, which this year had to be followed from home via the Padre Eustáquio YouTube Channel, many families, devotees of the Blessed and parishioners of the Health and Peace Sanctuary, acquired the Family Easter Candle.

However, the candle wasn't only used on Holy Saturday night; these families continue to light the Paschal candle during celebrations they participate in online. This is because in-person masses are still prohibited in Belo Horizonte.

The Paschal Candle is the most prominent symbol of Eastertide, this special time in the Church that runs from Easter to the Solemnity of Pentecost.
