Really? I grew up with hand raising in worship. Not just Pentecostles either. Even the Catholics worshipped this way.

Even in weddings.

Never been to a music concert? These folks do the same thing, but for God.

I grew up Catholic, but haven’t practiced for a long time. Not that I don’t believe you but, this was all news to me.

Don't worry. I've been to Catholic school growing up and didn't know this existed until I met my husband who's Baptist. Basically if you can't touch the person to bless them, you raise your palm in their direction to bless them from a distance. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
