Keep the Candles Burning
In the old tradition, devotees sent their petitions to a shrine along with a small donation, and real candles were lit for them — real wax, real flame, real prayer. This shrine keeps that tradition alive.
Where Your Gift Goes
Every donation is used openly and honestly, divided among three purposes:
- 🤲 Helping those in need — the first and highest use of every gift: direct help for people facing urgent need, in the spirit of the saint who answers urgent prayers
- 🕯️ Keeping the shrine alive — real red candles lit for the petitions left here, fresh flowers before his image, and the domain, hosting, and daily care that keep this site’s doors open day and night
- 📣 Spreading his name — telling the world about Saint Expedite so that his name may be invoked again and again, as every devotee promises
A simple accounting of gifts received and how they were used will be posted here regularly. No salaries, no mystery.

The most traditional offering needs no website at all: light a red candle to Saint Expedite in your own home, set a glass of water beside it, and speak your petition aloud. He hears those just as clearly.
And remember the sweetest part of the tradition — when he answers, the pound cake is on you.
