One in The Crowd

One in The Crowd

A mother and her daughter, in arms moves slowly towards the alter for communion. Here in Antigua the re-enactment of Christ who died for us, is to wash away the sins we commit as an act of forgiveness.

I some times wonder what it would be like if this belief could become a little more metro, and people would just be handed a prewash paper towel in a tiny package at the alter by a priest with tongs from a steaming bowl. I'd think the visual would be funny as you try to clean each finger as the towel beaks apart. Then again that could be a sign of the magnitude of one's sin. If it breaks apart real fast, its doesn't seem to be enough, you appear desperate, then its a big problem. On the other hand, if you can stuff the solid paper towel in your pocket. then it is just a little secrete.
