Hot For Jesus
Two weeks ago a fire destroyed Christine York’s house in Yuba County, California. When she went back in to see what she could salvage, she found her grandmother’s rosary was intact, as was a statue of the Virgin Mary which was still filled with holy water. Feeling desperate, she said, “Lord I can’t carry it no more. I need help.” She turned around and, there on the wallpaper, was the image of Jesus Christ. She cut it out, framed it, and is keeping it, in spite of already being offered $10,000 for it.

A Smokin’ Mary
When Veronica Dennis of Mexico, Maine removed a framed painting from her kitchen wall after a fire last January, she discovered the wall was blackened by smoke and fire…in the image of the Virgin Mary. She vowed she’d never sell the apparition but after being out of work for three months she changed her mind and the section of wall is on eBay with a starting bid of $2,500 and, with a few hours left, no takers. Smokin’!

How Do You Tuna Koran?
Muslims in Kenya have been flocking to the Takaungu Fresh Fish Shop in Mombasa to see a 5.5-lb tuna they say has a verse from the Koran on its scales: Wallahu khayru racism (God is the greatest of all providers). On Friday the state fisheries department took the tuna for safekeeping and is keeping it in cold storage. The National Museums of Kenya says it will document the fish so it can be used in religious education. Sorry, Charley.

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.

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.

A Heavenly Color of Semi-Gloss
Two Detroit women were painting their house in preparation of moving when they noticed that the red paint wouldn’t cover two areas of primer on a kitchen wall. When the areas dried they noticed that they looked like faces. They managed to paint over one, which they say looked like a pharaoh. The other refused to be painted over and they realized it looks like Jesus. The real mystery is why they were painting their kitchen red.
