Light a Candle at the Grotto

At the Grotto on the campus of the University of Notre Dame, hundreds of votive candles burn brightly night and day as expressions of prayer for special intentions. The living flame of each candle is a beautiful symbol of both prayer and hope. At the Grotto, one special perpetual candle is maintained to symbolize and commemorate the special needs and intentions requested from our community of faith who participate in the Confraternity.
