Gloucester, Massachusetts. Frank Domingos kissing a vessel representing remains of a saint, during ceremonies at his father's home, part of the tri-annual fiesta of Pentacost. The celebration--including the chosing of an Imperator, and visiting, eating, drinking, and worship in the home, culminates in a parade and blessing by the priest--originated with ancient Portugeese fisherman, drought-stricken, who prayed for assistance and received it
