The history behind the Luminary Tradition

Bring back the Old-Fashioned Luminarias and make it a New Holiday Tradition.  Luminarias first appeared in history around the 16th century. They were used to guide people to midnight mass on the last night of Las Posadas (Spanish word meaning lodging or inn).   They were used to welcome people into safety.  Let’s use them now to welcome people home for the holidays and make all things in NK merry and bright!
