  • Young Born Again Christians express emotions during a ministry at Butlins holiday centre in Minehead, Somerset, England. The annual meeting of fellow-evangelical pilgrims at one of Britain's holiday centres gives this otherwise jolly evening entertainment venue - a ballroom for dance and music - lends a far different atmosphere during this religious festival of prayer and dialogue with Jesus. Young people hold up their hands towards Heaven with either peace or pain on their faces.

  • A young, vulnerable-looking youth stands close to two members of a local Evangelical church who are using a carpet warehouse as a temporary Ministry. Rolls of carpets and rugs are behind these Christians as the two officials practice the 'laying on of hands' to cleanse the soul of their young convert during a religious meeting in Newport, Wales. As the ceremony takes place when this boy is persuaded to accept Jesus into his life, two retail signs proclaim the prices and credit terms of the household items. The laying on of hands is a religious practice found throughout the world in varying forms. In Christian churches, this practice is used as both a symbolic and formal method of invoking the Holy Spirit during baptisms, healing services, blessings, and ordination of priests, ministers, elders, deacons, and other holy church ceremonies.

  • Billy Graham preaches with sincere, confidently open hands to British Christians during Mission 89, a series of evangelical revival rallies in London, England. Graham is an Evangelical Christian who has been a spiritual adviser to several U.S. presidents including George W Bush with Time Magazine calling him “.. the nation's spiritual counselor."  He is number seven on Gallup's list of admired people for the 20th century and member of the Southern Baptist Convention. Here he is seen towering on a giant screen over the small heads of his UK congregation who are sitting passively listening to the message of this great man of God. The scale of his personality and presence above them makes this a powerful image of leadership and of followers.

  • Coca Dai and Juan Juan sign a document during their wedding ceremony at the Xujiahui Catholic Church in Shanghai, China on 23 May 2009. A hip street artist and a recent Catholic convert, Mr. Dai is one of many young Chinese embracing religion, perhaps to fill the lack of belief and ideology in an authoritarian communist China that embraces the most extreme form of capitalism in practice. The Chinese government and the Vatican have a long history of simmering mutual distrust and suspicion, as two parties compete for the control of the Chinese Catholic church, with some 15 million and growing number of faithfuls.  Overall Christians now number over 110 million in China, which makes it the third largest Christian nation in the world.

This was a common practice at that time and occurred in many places all over Spain. The church was designated as the first cathedral of Granada. The church was designed by Juan de Herrera in the Renaissance style and was started in 1581 by Ambrosio de Vico and finished in 1617.
