Sunday- At Church
Its Sunday. Time for the faithful to hear mass. This was taken surreptitiously at St. Joseph Cathedral at the end of the service. This has been a practice that's been done for a while now. At the end of the mass people, mostly children, surge towards the Priest to pay their respects by pressing the priest's knuckles against their foreheads.
To better understand this tradition you can check my previous blog about this.
Just in case you're wondering why this photo is blurry, its just my way of showing the madhouse that is the church every time it ends. Hehe
