An Italian community brought together by a common purpose

My hometown friends in Italy have shared this and other great photos showing the work preparation for the procession of Corpus Domini, a religious feast that every year, in June, celebrates Jesus's Presence in the Eucharist. This event was very special to me while I was growing up “nel mio piccolo paese” (in my little town) because, for the occasion, all people in town were brought together by a common purpose and a strong sense of community. In fact, every year, in occasion of this celebration, they would get together and decorate the streets with fresh flowers petals and leaves, ground coffee and flour, with which they would create "capolavori" (masterpieces) making each street look like a piece of art. Thank you, my friends, for sharing beautiful photos of this celebration. They remind me of the many masterpieces we created together and the laughters we all shared. It was a fun time, indeed!

I love you all!

Ringrazio i miei amici d'infanzia Anna Maria, Giuseppina e Reziero per questa e altre foto.
