They might light a candle for you.

They would charge people for the candles, for the candle holders, for the building the candle holders are in, for prayers said in the general direction of the  candles, for removing stubs and melted wax, and for taking care of your little boys while you're praying for their sick mother.

Of course you put money in the stand where the votive candles are.  Sheesh.

I suppose prices have gone up. When I was a kid, it was a penny in the Poor Box for lighting a votive.
