Sacrifice

The Calvinist congregation in Szombathely, Hungary, is celebrating the completion of their new bell tower and church renovations with a traditional thanksgiving event. Members of the community came together to process a pig in the traditional way, working side by side in the church garden and crypt. Following local custom, the day began with a small toast of 'pálinka' to ask for God's blessing on their work. This communal effort is dedicated to God as an act of thanksgiving, followed by a shared feast.
