(By Andrew Golebiowski – Corpus Christi Church) Corpus Christi Church celebrates the tradition of Candlemas-Matki Boski Gromnicznej (Our Lady of the Thunder Candle) on Feb. 2. People brought their own “Thunder Candle” or “Gromnica to church to be blessed. Some of the candles brought to church had been carried from Poland.
After blessing, the candle is taken home to be lit during storms and other times of trouble, or to be placed in the hands of a dying person to allow the light to lead them to the next world.
