Sara Kjorling, 24, from Stockholm leads the procession during the traditional Swedish festival of Sankta Lucia at York Minster on December 11, 2015 in York, England. The festival of Sankta Lucia is a traditional Swedish festival of light that celebrates the bringer of light during the long darkness of winter. The service features a candlelit procession and carols in celebration of St Lucy, a young Sicilian girl who was martyred for her Christian faith in the early fourth century. The service, which is run in partnership with York Anglo-Scandanavian Society, starts with a procession led by a girl wearing a crown of candles, thought to symbolise a halo and a red sash that symbolises martyrdom.
