Children receive their First Holy Communion from Pope Francis in Havana, Cuba 2015

Pope Francis is in Cuba right now and will arrive in the United States later. I found this youtube of him performing a ritual in Cuba. What kind of ritual is it?

  1. Dr Hoolbrook, you might have posted the wrong video. I think this is the video youre reffering to in the title: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5UIxn5GgeY
    as for the kind ritual the pope is performing in the video, its a rite of passage

  2. If you're referring to the "medical miracle" of the little boy, it would be a life crisis rite. If you're referring to the Holy Communion video, it would be a rite of passage sacred ritual.
