Dressing Up For Church
According to a Romanian couple, images of Jesus, St. Peter, and St. Paul have appeared on a wardrobe they received from her parents as a dowry 50 years ago. The images first showed up just before Christmas last year, starting as shadows and getting progressively clearer every day. Since then their house has become a popular stop on the Eastern European Sightings Tour 2005. They hope to get an Internet connection soon so they can sell it on eBay.

Who Were You Expecting, The Holy Spirit?
People in Chile are flocking to the Christo Rey de Tome Church in Santiago to see an image that appeared on a wall of the church five weeks ago, an image some say is the soon to be canonized Father Hurtado holding a child. As if the Catholic church hasn’t had enough problems with live priests and children.

A Message From Ant Mary
Images of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary have been discovered on leaves in the rain forests of Brazil, and they were made by ants! A biologist says the tiny holes in the guava, mango and other fruit trees couldn’t have been made by humans. Reverend Antonio Maria says he saw ants cut out an image of the Virgin Mary on a palm tree branch in two hours. As further proof, they say one of the leaves is inscribed with the word “pas,” which they believe to be a misspelled version of the Portuguese for peace, “paz.” Hey, they’re ants, you can’t expect them to be great spellers, you know.

Rorschach Nativity
People from around the globe have traveled to Vermilion, Ohio, over the past year to see mold stains on the back of a Nativity scene that look like Jesus Christ. I mean, the Virgin Mary. Okay, the pope. “It started with about five images that we could recognize,” said Roger Hanson, whose wife, Elizabeth, owns Abigail’s Antiques & Emporium. “Now it’s up to about 12.” When they got the wooden Nativity scene it was completely covered with mold. They tried to scrub it off with a toothbrush, blast it with an air compressor and use a heavy brush. Finally they washed it with dish soap. The mold grew back. Hanson looked at it and saw a profile of the Virgin Mary. His wife saw Jesus Christ. Others have seen the pope, a burro’s head, a hand holding a chalice, a Catholic cardinal, a halo over Christ’s head, an upside-down crown, three palm branches on Christ’s head, a celestial hand and Jesus’ hand extended outward. They’ve been offered $10,000 for it but won’t sell.

Divine Dumpling
Donna Lee of Point Place, Ohio, was cooking pierogis for Easter dinner when she noticed that one of them came out of the frying pan with the image of Jesus Christ burned into it. Seventeen people bid for it on eBay, with the winner, uh, forking over $1,775 for it. And that’s without even knowing whether it’s filled with meat, cheese, or vegetables. GoldenPalace.com is the proud owner, adding it to their growing collection.

Jesus Plastered!
Jeffrey Rigo of Pittsburgh, PA stepped out the shower Saturday evening to find an image of Jesus Christ in the water-stained plaster on the bathroom wall. He did what any sane person would do — he cut out the section of plaster, found the water leak, made a box, filled it with plaster, placed the “Shower Jesus” inside the box to dry, and posted it for sale on eBay.
Postscript: The plaster Jesus was bought by goldenpalacecasino.com for $1,999.99. They’re planning to add it to a traveling museum that will appear in cities nationwide.
