Our Story

Pura Lux — Latin for pure light — is a labor of faith, purpose, and love. This candle company didn’t begin as just a business idea; it started as a divine calling. While working from home in the routine world of insurance, I felt a quiet yet undeniable prompting deep within my heart. The path wasn’t clear at first, and doubt crept in often, but I chose to listen and be obedient to that gentle nudge.

What began as a whisper grew into a vision. Over the course of two years, this vision transformed through countless hours of research, testing, and crafting — turning what was once a dream into a tangible reality. Every element of Pura Lux is intentional, designed to bring light—not just physical warmth, but spiritual illumination—into homes and hearts.

Each candle is hand-poured in small batches using 100% organic soybean wax grown right here in the USA. We take pride in offering clean, non-toxic fragrances that refresh and uplift without harsh chemicals, adhering to the highest standards. Our wicks, made from 100% cotton or natural wood, burn steadily and purely, ensuring a safe, smooth glow with every use.

But Pura Lux is about more than just quality materials. Every candle carries with it a carefully selected Bible verse meant to inspire, comfort, encourage, and soothe the soul. Whether you seek strength in times of trial, peace in moments of unrest, or simply a gentle reminder of God’s love, these verses open the gateway for His presence to fill your space. This sacred connection is at the heart of everything we create.

Pura Lux candles are meant to be shared—perfect for thoughtful gifts that speak volumes without words. In a chaotic and often overwhelming world, these candles serve as beacons of hope, love, and divine light. I am profoundly grateful to have this opportunity to help increase the Kingdom of God by spreading His Word through something as simple and as powerful as light.

We believe that light multiplies when it is shared. Every candle we make carries that promise — that warmth in one home can bring hope to another. For that reason, $1 from every candle is joyfully given to organizations doing real, meaningful work in the world. It’s a small seed, but with every purchase, those seeds grow into encouragement, and compassion for those who need it most. When you choose Pura Lux, you’re choosing to let love ripple outward — one flame, one home, one heart at a time.


Thank you for welcoming Pura Lux into your life. Together, we shine His pure light into the darkness, one candle at a time.
