Prayer votives
Prayer votive candles are small candles used in religious and spiritual practices, particularly in Christianity. They symbolize prayers offered to God or saints and are often placed in churches, home altars, and shrines. Lighting a votive candle represents an intention to pray for oneself or others, with the flame serving as a physical manifestation of the prayer.
