Candelmas 2026

Candlemas was celebrated at the Chapel of St. Thomas this year, with a sung liturgy celebrated by Fr. Nicholas Froehle, Pastor of St. Michael’s in Farmington. The evening included the blessing of candles, procession, and a choir of voices praising God, and bringing joy to all. This holy evening of light was followed by a talk in Kolbe Hall by UST Theology Professor, Dr. Philip Rolnick.

The engaging talk titled “Living in the Light of Christ: One Purpose, Multiple Tasks” was enjoyed by all! Please click below for a video of Dr. Rolnick’s reflection, and see photos below.
