The furnace uses propane. It does use electricity to operate the blower and fan. Usually the fan comes on first then the propane flows to be ignited. You should hear some "clicking" sounds as the igniter tries to light up the burner.

Cooler weather will burn through propane at surprisingly fast rates

Sorry to hear about this "bump in the road."
But at least can be solved easily!
