Firewalking: Footprint Reading Library 8

By Rob Waring

In a small village in northern Greece, local residents participate in an annual religious festival called 'Anastenaria'. During the festival, believers walk across fire to test their faith which revolves around a set of ancient icons that worshippers believe have special powers--to purify, heal and protect. But others view the ritual as sacrilege.
