a Progressive Easter morning

I spent Easter morning at the First Progressive Baptist Church in Lubbock along with about a hundred other enthusiastic worshippers. In the past 24 hours I've visited various churches in Lubbock for religious stories and I've really enjoyed seeing so many people of faith, regardless of their specific beliefs. While photographing this morning I was drawn to Sandra Rogers, her brightly colored clothing and her expressiveness.

Sandra Rogers, right, lifts her hands and sings praises along with the choir and congregation during the Easter service Sunday morning at the First Progressive Baptist Church in Lubbock.
