The Flames Of Heaven?

Last week Debbie Woodrow of New Forest, Hampshire, England, was watching the coals burn in her fireplace when she saw the image of Jesus materialize on the back wall of the hearth. “A halo appeared round the head – which looked like a crown of thorns. For it to happen over Christmas was amazing,” she said. She hasn’t had a fire since because, “We don’t want it to go.” And it saves on coal expenses.

Not Orange Julius, Orange Jesus

When Paul Kulniszewski of Lockport, N.Y., cut open an orange for breakfast on Christmas morning, he was surprised to see the image of Jesus hanging from a crucifix with the Virgin Mother below. Having taken evidence photos for the New York State Police for 30 years, he had the presence of mind to take a photograph before the orange dried up and shriveled. He’s says he has no intention of selling the orange, which he’s since coated in resin, so it can stay in the family. Though he does plan to sell copies of the photograph for $15.00 with half the proceeds going to his Catholic Church in Lockport.

Bringing Home The Bacon

Toby Elles of Salford, England, wanted a late night snack after drinking beer with his roommates, so he put a few slices of bacon in a pan. He decided to rest on the couch while it cooked and fell asleep, waking up about an hour later with smoke filling the room. When he lifted the burned bacon he discovered the image of Jesus Christ staring at him from the bottom of the pan, this in spite of the pork product not being kosher. “I’m not going to scrub it clean though,” he says, “just in case I get struck by lightning. It’s going to take pride of place on a wall instead.”

Ukraine Your Neck, You See Jesus

Early this summer some discolorations appeared on the outer wall of a timber factory in Velyky Berezny, a town in western Ukraine. Probably caused by mold or dampness, people immediately saw in them the image of Jesus’ head and body. The factory has become a tourist attraction, with visitors leaving flowers, taking photographs, and even kissing the image. So far there’s an increased police presence but no plans to build a gift shop.

Samoa Sightings

Last week Samoans across the country prayed to ensure that the country’s September 7 switch to driving on the left side of the road would be a safe one. Seemingly in response, an image appeared on the wall of the Congregational Christian Church in the capital city of Apia that many say is Mary with a rosary in her hands. Others claim it looks more like Jesus Christ. Roman Catholic Archbishop, Father Spatz Silva, says he’s still investigating but has no doubt it’s a general message to steer clear of sin. Still others feel it’s a sign that they should drink more Coke.

Gimme A Break, Gimme A Break…

On Good Friday, a reader of the Dutch website NU.nl was on the way to work when he took a bite of his KitKat bar. As he was about to take another, he looked down and noticed the image of Jesus Christ in the layers of wafer and chocolate. He stopped and took it to work, where he showed two colleagues who agreed that it indeed looked like Jesus. No word on whether he finished eating the candy bar or not.
