Brazil - Religion - Sao Lazaro ceremony

Priest blessing the congrigation with Holy water. Often the lines between Candomble and Catholicism are blurred. This is especially true with the Sao Lazaro event in late January in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, the city which is known as the home of Candomble. Sao Lazaro represents healing and the sick.
