Votive candles, the shrine of Fátima and a candlelight procession at night

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom should I fear? (Ps 27:1)

Light a candle at a Marian shrine, wherever you are.

Every day, the Poor Clare Sisters in Zagreb and the residents of Langov dom in Mala Gorica pray for your intention.

Holy Mass is celebrated once a month for all intentions

How it works

Three steps, less than a minute.

  1. Choose a shrine

    Medjugorje, Lourdes, Fátima and five more Marian shrines around the world.

  2. Write your intention

    Who or what you are lighting the candle for. Your intention can stay private.

  3. Light it and share

    Your candle burns on the candle wall, and the Poor Clare Sisters and the residents of Langov dom pray for your intention every day. You can send the link to family and friends.
