Candlemas (a.k.a. The Presentation of the Lord, a.k.a. Purification of the Virgin)


Presentation in the Temple, Fra Angelico (1440-1)
Prayer: Almighty and everliving God, we humbly beseech thee that, as Thy only-begotten Son was this day presented in the temple, so we may be presented unto thee with pure and clean hearts by the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
