With a little invention we could permanently unite
HERE'S A BRIGHT IDEA!
Right now, VIGILS are occuring everywhere. Mostly they make use of petroleum which is at the core of our current social problems. Suppose the people willing to vigil were to switch to an olive oil lamp. They are easier to handle, and stand for a far more noble principle than using industrial fuel. They are no more expensive than candles to burn, and they can be reused vigil after vigil. The lamps can be kept burning as well, even after the vigil as a memorial of the concerns which caused the vigil to happen. The kind of lamps recommended are precision designed coils with wicks and instructions which can be gotten in quantity from Merry Corliss under a variety of terms, even free for Vigil concerns. You can e-mail her here: goatelder@aol.com . They are also available, and have been for 16 years at Lehman's Hardware in Kidron Ohio. Oil Lamps at Lehman’s They turn any jar or glass into a safe and beautiful olive oil lamp. Olive oil is no more expensive than candles. They are BRIGHTER than candles by 20% as well to further light up our concerns!
OTHER INFORMATION ABOUT BURNING OLIVE OIL Merry's olive oil lamps
Fire is the gift of the angels. It warms us, lights our way, and burns within us
When Aaron built the temple in the book of Exodus, the fuel God told him to use was Olive Oil The wise virgins had it ready for their lamps, and Jesus read scripture in the temple by the wonderful light of olive oil. Olive oil is nearly perfect fuel. It burns more than 99% clean. Growing it improves the earth's atmosphere, as the trees produce oxygen and refining where olive oil is concerned means pressing the olives and filtering the oil. One really wonders why mankind has chosen to burn toxic petroleum based paraffin and kerosene, when he wants to enjoy or needs to use the light of flame.The olive is called the tree of peace. People say its golden light has a marvelous peaceful quality. Try it yourself and see.
