Offerings to the Sea Goddess Yemanja

Faithful prepare to wade into the ocean to deliver their offerings to Yemanja, the African sea goddess, during a ceremony honoring the deity in Montevideo, Uruguay, Saturday, Feb. 2, 2013. Thousands of worshippers come to the beach in Montevideo on her feast day, Feb. 2, bearing candles, flowers, perfumes and fruit to show their gratitude for her blessings bestowed upon them. The belief in the goddess sprouts from Umbanda, a blend of religions that include African, Catholicism and Spiritism. (AP Photo/Matilde Campodonico)
