Crowned With Candles: How Saint Lucy Teaches Us to Be Light in the Darkness

St Lucy
Celebrating Saint Lucy of Syracuse
The name Lucy means light. She is a light, but more importantly she points us to the light of Christ. In the literal darkness we face every year at this time and in the greater darkness we face in our lives and in the world, Lucy reminds us that the light of Christ shines in the midst of it all, and the darkness does not overcome it.
