Palm Sunday in Gorbio - the Prior and the Missel


The palm fronds have been blessed and the congregation take their seats in the pews of the church. At the same time, the prior holds open the missel as he walks towards the altar, followed by the priest.

Les feuilles de palmiers ont été bénies et les fidèles prennent place  sur les bancs de l'église. Dans le même temps,  le prieur tenant le missel se dirige vers l'autel suivi par le prêtre.

  1. Good black and white shot!

    It's rather outside of my experience... I was raised in the Protestant side of things, and the traditions differ.
