A woman wearing a white baptismal gown with a cross on the front addresses a semicircle of baptismal candidates on the beach in Long Beach close to the Municipal Pier. A man in crutches stands at beginning of the semicircle. The candidates next to him are holding flags. Onlookers fill the space between the candidates and the buildings in the background. The sign, right, warns "no ball playing along the beach".
