Default Old churches and candle lighting

Hello, I am in France visiting old villages in the Dordogne and ancient churches--and lighting candles. If you have someone for whom you would like me to light a candle and say a short prayer, give me a first name. Please don't PM, this iPad drives me nuts.

Some of you I already light candles for when we go. I am not Catholic, but it doesn't seem to matter!

If you pray for all sinners I will be included. Hurry back you enchanting Mademoiselle.

I think we all would like to be on that list.

Bless you,

Please pray for Doreen, Harold and Linda.

I'll pray for your safe return.

Please pray for my stepson Jc. He had back surgery Monday and now his leg is numb and he can't move it.

Thank you all. This morning we visited Égliisé Notre Dame in the tiny village of Villefranche and lit a candle for gomoho's Sarah. More to come.
I am trying to take pics on my android phone and email them to myself so I can post a few here. Wish me luck!
