The Story of Thy Gift

The Story of Thy Gift

A light from God’s heart to your home

Thy Gift began with a simple desire: to bring light, beauty, and prayer into homes through natural, handcrafted beeswax candles. Between working as a nurse and raising my children, I found peace in creating these candles—each one reflecting faith, purity, and the quiet power of simplicity. What started as a small project during busy days of family life and study has grown into a labour of love and devotion.

Each candle is made with 100% natural beeswax, carefully selected wicks, and natural oils for our scented options. Inspired by Catholic tradition, our designs draw from sacramentals, the lives of saints, and the powerful symbolism of light in prayer and spiritual warfare. Whether a votive, a saint-adorned jar candle, or a quiet tealight for your prayer corner, our candles uplift hearts and point souls to Heaven.

Our journey began when I first heard of the prophecy of the Three Days of Darkness and searched everywhere for pure beeswax candles. Finding none readily available, I embarked on a path of discovery—testing wax from various beekeepers, learning that not all beeswax is equal. Some had impurities, others burned poorly, and many lacked the clean honey scent I desired. I refined my craft, first making candles for my own prayer space, then for family and friends.

A dream stayed with me: surrounded by darkness and attacked by a beast, St. Padre Pio appeared and helped me hand out beeswax candles as the darkness fell. I awoke with a mission—these candles were not just for me but to be shared. That dream planted the seed of Thy Gift.

Born from obedience, prayer, and love, each candle is made with pure beeswax, long valued in Catholic and Orthodox traditions for its natural purity and connection to God’s creation. We encourage having your candles blessed so they become sacramentals—holy reminders and instruments of grace in your home. As Fr. Chris Alar says, any size blessed beeswax candle will suffice during the Three Days of Darkness.

Whether lighting your candle in prayer, preparing spiritually, or gifting it to loved ones, we pray it brings peace and reminds you that even the smallest flame carries the Light of Christ.

From our family to yours—thank you for supporting a small, faith-driven business. God bless you always.
