Description
Inside a crowded church or meeting hall, a child is being lifted into the air in the foreground, wearing a light blue top and brown pants. The child’s arms are raised near their head, and their face is slightly blurred due to motion. In the background, a man stands among seated attendees with his hand raised. The room has a high, vaulted ceiling with hanging cylindrical lights and narrow windows set into brick walls. The audience appears engaged, with several people watching the standing man.
