Confirmation Prostration

Looking for pictures of confirmation (nothing was good) for my last post I came across this picture from a Catholic confirmation.


This is not to be critical in any way, but can any of you good Catholics out there explain what they're doing? I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

+Tom

ok, I'll try, we learned about this when john was getting confirmed (you could ask fr. tony at Nic's baptism, he's a cool guy to speak with) It is when an ordination candidate lies prostrate during the ceremony.
It's a sign of humility and of total self-donation to God. That is the best of my knowledge.
