As Easter approaches, people who have decided to join the church take part in RCIA "The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults." At Easter, they receive the Easter sacraments of initiation into the Church: baptism, confirmation, and Eucharist. Each week, they take part in the Mass, and then they leave the service part way through for more instruction. Before they leave the Mass, the parishioners pray over them, by extending their hands as a prayer is offered. This is what I have photographed here.
