Blue Candle Lighting

In several groups we have discussed lighting a blue candle on Christmas Day and Holidays to remember the sailors,recruits and military who are not coming home.. Admin asked us to keep track of how many candles are lighting.. Please respond and the count will be automatic,. The sailors who are home please light the blue candle and let them know.. Here or Not they are always brightly shining at each of our tables. My candle says. Thoughts of you are gently wrapped in lttle prayers...
Your candle can say anything. Send to the groups you each belong to and please rsvp to this invite so the count can be kept track of easier. rsvp and state where you are from please....Event Extended through New Years Day... Thankyou

For the count to be automatic dont you have to RSVP? Thats what I did ladies. Not sure if its correct or not but thats the only way I figured my own candle lighting would count.
