The Paschal Candle is one of the most recognisable symbols of Easter, representing the light of Christ and His victory over death. Used prominently in Christian worship, the Paschal Candle plays a central role in the Easter Vigil, as well as baptisms and funerals throughout the year. But what exactly is a Paschal Candle, where does this tradition come from, and why does it hold such deep spiritual significance? In this guide, we explore its history, meaning, and ongoing role in church worship.
Paschal Candles are a powerful symbol in Christian worship, representing the light of Christ and His resurrection. Traditionally, these candles feature religious symbols such as the cross, Alpha (Α) and Omega (Ω), the current year, and five incense grains. For churches looking to personalise their Paschal Candle affordably, Paschal transfers offer a cost-effective and customisable alternative to hand-decorated candles. In this guide, we explore what Paschal transfers are, how they work, and why they may be the perfect solution for your church.
