What is a Vigil Service?


If you have ever had a personal interaction with me and are one of my family you will know more about this but I thought of educating the masses today about one of my most requested and powerful tools “Vigil Service” this involves lighting a candle or a set of candles for a particular duration that ranges anywhere between 3 to 9 days some cases for a longer time.
Another word for Vigil  is “votive” and comes from the Latin "votum", meaning promise, dedication or simply “prayer.” It reinforces the idea that the candles represent our prayers before God.
As humans, we are body and soul and our prayers often need to be expressed in a physical, tangible way. This helps our soul be at rest and is a way to deepen our spirituality. Similar to incense, the light of the candles is a physical reminder that points our souls to God. We light them not because we believe our prayers will be better heard by God, but because we need something visual to connect our body and soul.
As a Catholic we are all aware of the concept of novenas and candle burning during that time the difference between the Vigil candle and Novena candles are that the flame is tended to and is ensured that the flame is not extinguished for the period that the vigil is lit. In the Novena Candles the candles are only lit during the duration of the prayers post that the candles are allowed to extinguish on their own or extinguished manually and re-lit the next day for the duration of the novena.
