The Meaning of Candles in the Greek Orthodox Church - California Greek Girl
The lighted candle is very symbolic during many ceremonies within the Greek Orthodox church. It represents the light of Christ according to Jesus’ own words, ” I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life”. Candles are displayed everywhere, the front of the church as you enter, the narthex, around the front of the altar in the nave, and in the holy altar.

Flyonovo is a small village located not far from Smolensk. It is famous for its monuments of architecture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. One of them is Teremok made in the Russian Revival style. The other one is a brick-made church of the Descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles. Above the entrance to the church there is a mosaic preserved to our days. It depicts the angels bowing their heads before Christ. Photographer Vitaliy Ragulin
