The Afterworld Can Be Your Oyster
While walking near Johnny Mercer’s Pier in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, a man looked down and saw an oyster shell he thought looked like the Virgin Mary. Some say it looks more like Jesus. Others think it’s an angel. The guy who found it thinks he has a bonanza so he put it on eBay where as of this writing, the high bid is only $36. Plus $5 shipping, of course.

Watching From Above
Three weeks ago a client at the One Stop Body Shoppe in Arkansas City, Kansas, was laying on her back doing exercises when she noticed a water stain that looked like Jesus Christ on a ceiling tile above her. Since then, all the ceiling tiles that had been damaged by a leak in the roof have been replaced except that one. “Maybe he’ll be the only tile we won’t replace,” said Dominique Sartin, Body Shoppe staff member. And yes, they’re considering selling it on eBay.

Going Out On A Limb
Christopher Moreau was having a drink in his garden in the Toronto suburb of Scarborough when he spotted the likeness of the Virgin Mary on a tree, standing in her traditional open-armed pose. “It raises the hair on your neck, it gives you chills,” he said. His neighbor, and owner of the tree, Eulalee Hamilton says it’s just scarring from a limb that was lopped off a year ago. Moreau has invited people to come by and see it. Hamilton says, “Chris can have all the people he wants on his back deck but I don’t really want people trampling on my garden.”

Rock ‘n The Baby Jesus
Dena Patterson of Brooksville, Florida, was walking through the woods in West Virginia in 1996 when she came upon a rock near a stream with what she though was the image of a veiled Mary cradling the baby Jesus in her arms. She’s looking to sell the rock because her health is declining and she wants the money to go back to West Virginia to see her family. Peter Harries, associate professor of geology at the University of South Florida in Tampa, says the rock is shale and doesn’t think the image significant. “Things that mimic (other things) are pretty constant in nature,” he said. Perhaps, but there is a striking resemblance to Mrs. Butterworth.

He Cures What Ales You
Michael Cartwright and his friends were in Tanners Hall, a pub in Darlington, England, when they saw what looked like the face of Jesus in the foil wrapping of a bottle of Bulmer’s cider. The next day when they looked at a photograph one of them had taken of it, they realized the image was clearer than they remembered. When they went back to the pub to retrieve the bottle they discovered it had been thrown out. “I’m not sure what message Jesus was sending and maybe now we’ll never know,” Cartwright said.

Recently, someone spotted an image of Jesus Christ on a window there and took a photo with their cell phone. where life is saved, an interesting image is popping up on a window. One person who saw it says, “It looks like a face to me, first of all I haven’t seen Jesus, personally, and so I can’t say that it’s Jesus.” The hospital is calling it “an unexplained image.” Filed under: Uncategorized
