In a world where the only constant is change, one flame stands strong. The light of the Shabbat candles remain a beacon of warmth and light, and of meaningful connections and values. In a world stressed by making a living, the Shabbat candles focus on making a life worth living. Six days of the week we seek to work the world, on Shabbat we seek to discover ourselves. For all the winds of change and progression, Shabbat anchors our inner self, providing guidance and direction to our journey through time. Light up your home and light up the world, celebrate time and celebrate light, one Shabbat at a time.
