Saint Philomena Candle

Connect with Saint Philomena, Saint of Children & Babies, with this beautiful candle!

This Saint Philomena candle is English Lavender scented.

Each SAINT Candle comes with a prayer to the patron saint, holy oil as part of the wax (blessed by both a priest and a rabbi), and an Italian prayer coin embedded into the candle honoring the patron saint which reveals itself once the candle has burned down.

Prayer: "Saint Philomena, saint of children and babies, you were martyred at the young age of thirteen for your adherence to your vows and your devotion to Christ. While your life was short, your divine intercessions have led to miracles of everlasting impact. Please confer your blessing of health and protection on the children of the world, especially [name child or baby]. Amen."

Fragrance Notes: Citrus, Bergamot, Lavender

Ira DeWitt, a music executive with a PhD in education, wanted to give her friend suffering from cancer something more purposeful than flowers or a card, something that evoked a sense of comfort and spirituality. Ira decided to create something herself, and this is how SAINT Candles, Modern Prayer Candles for a Cause, was born.  10% of all SAINT Candles sales are donated to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to support their lifesaving mission.
