Description |
Preservation of the beauty and environment of the Shrine, Apparition Chapel and Apparition Oratory which entails cleaning the walls, ceiling, floor, and windows, as well as dusting and polishing pews, statues, and all furnishings. This effort to remove the smoke and soot created by the hundreds of candles that are lit and burn around the clock throughout the month maintains a healthier environment for the many people who come to pray at the foot of our Holy Mother, asking her intercession in all their needs. |
