    A man cups his hands and receives “temizu,” a form of ablution to wash the hands of impurities, before attending a groundbreaking ceremony on Camp Foster Jan. 15, 2015. The ceremony, called “jichinsai,” was conducted by a Shinto priest. During the ceremony, the priest prayed for safety during the demolition of existing houses and construction of a new building to replace Zukeran Elementary School on Camp Foster, Japan.
