There’s Jesus In Them Thar Hills
Burton Klatt was prospecting with his brother near Wikenburg, Arizona, when he found a funny looking small gold nugget. “I saw an image of a horse,” he says of the nugget that weighs less than an ounce and is smaller than a B-B. But when he brought it home, his wife Carole saw something different — the Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus. After keeping it to themselves for a year, they decided to share it with others. “I don’t see how anyone could think we’re nuts because they could look at it and they could see it,” Burton says, even though it does look a bit like a mother and child from the unreleased sequel, Saviour of the Planet of the Apes.

Mary On The Half Shell
About a year ago, Shirley McVane of Burbank, Illinois, received a gift from her grandson — two tiny baby turtles. Recently, she noticed that one of them had begun to develop what she believes to be an image of the Virgin Mary on the underside of its shell. She promptly renamed the turtle Mary, and of course its tank mate became Joseph. Hopefully there will be a baby turtle soon. I wonder what she’ll name it.

Olive Virgin Mary
Three months ago, Georgette Elhakin of Glenroy, Australia, noticed something on the bark of her olive tree. She thought it looked like a statue of the Madonna. Since then “miracles” have been happening. First a lump on her inner thigh disappeared. Then Centrelink, a government agency that offers community services, wrote saying they owed her money instead of her owing them. Her husband doesn’t believe the figure on the tree is an image of the Madonna. Then again, he still has chronic asthma and can’t work.

I See Mary On A Sea Shell By The Sea Shore
Kathy Snow of Mooresville, North Carolina was walking on Wrightsville Beach last year when she found a shell she says bears a strong likeness to the Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus. She’s asking $25,000 for it on eBay. You can even buy it now and not make a payment for three months.

Great Northern Jesus
After a cloth depicting the crown of thorns was put up in a church on Prince Edward Island, Canada, for Ash Wednesday, parishioners started seeing the face of Jesus on it, complete with long flowing hair. Members of the Parish of St. Simon and St. Jude in Tignish say the cloth has been used for years but the face has never appeared before. According to the reports, “Some efforts have been made to shake the image out of the cloth, but it continues to appear.”
