What Would Jesus See » Entries tagged with "Pennsylvania"
The Man Of Steel. Uh, Iron?
Mary Jo Coady of Methuen, Massachusetts, was putting away the laundry when she glanced down at an iron and noticed an image of Jesus on the bottom. “I picked it up and asked my daughters to take a look at it to make sure I wasn’t crazy,” she said. “They were as amazed as I was.” So she did what any sane person would do. No, she didn’t put it up for sale on eBay, she posted photographs of the iron on her Facebook page. The answer from her friends and relatives was unanimous—it indeed looked like Jesus. So then she did what any sane person would do. No, it’s still not up for sale on eBay. Yet. She went to the newspaper with the pressing story. Now that’s a new wrinkle.

Truckin’ Along With Mary
A woman named Sharon emailed ABC-7 in El Paso, Texas, to let them know she and her family saw an image of the Virgin Mary at a Petro truck stop. The TV station sent a crew out that found the water stain and took a photograph of it. Good thing too, since the truck stop’s maintenance crew washed the stain off within days.

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.

MRI Is Not Pronounced Mary
An unidentified woman from Levittown, Pennsylvania, contacted a local news station and gave them a copy of the imaging from an MRI she’d recently performed, pointing out that instead of a heart, there appeared to be the image of a long-haired man she claims is Jesus. The MRI is awaiting analysis by a radiologist and a priest.

This One Will Stump You
A number of parishioners at St. Mary’s church in Rathkeale, Ireland, noticed the outline of the Virgin Mary in a tree that was cut down to clean up the grounds. Over 2,000 townspeople have signed a petition asking that the stump remain where it is, calling it a “divine intervention,” but a local priest, Fr Willie Russell, thinks otherwise, saying, “There’s nothing there, it’s just a tree. People shouldn’t worship a tree.”

Pressing Religious Concerns
No sooner had Janie Guerra, a pants presser at Comet Cleaners in Harlingen, Texas, returned to her station after lunchtime prayers than she noticed a familiar image on the press head pad. “I pick up the pants and I see the Virgin Mary,” she says. Store owner Buddy Fischer didn’t want to sell the press pad, nor turn it into a shrine and have the store flooded with pilgrims, so he printed up copies of the photograph Guerra had taken with her cell phone, handed them out, and kept using the press. Before long the image faded. “I had to,” he says. “I had 700 pairs of pants to press.”
