Sunday Mass in Masasi

Went to Mass today in the Masasi town church. It was beautiful! Lots of singing and incense. Two and a half hours, and I went to the early, short Mass! At the next Mass they have a wonderful parade with the Eucharist through the area, stopping at the clinic, school, etc. The children wear special yellow and white outfits--yellow skirts or slacks and white shirts or blouses. They dance and spread flower petals. It is quite a celebration! The picture outside the church shows the rocky hills that surround Masasi. The Mission is the Migongo Mission, named for the mountain nearby. Can you find the cross on the top?
