Just the flash? Photos taken a minute apart at church in Pittsburgh, Janice M. Heagy

My wife, Karen, was on a pilgrimage to Rome from February 23 to March 4 of this
year.  On Thursday, March 2nd, she and a friend went to San Pietro in Vincoli
(St Peter in Chains) and also took a picture of the Divine Mercy painting
hanging in the church.  Unlike the person who took the picture several days
later and only notice the glow after get his pictures developed, my wife and
her friend were drawn to the painting from the beginning because it appeared to
be glowing.  She reports that they tried for some several minutes to figure out
why—there was no apparent artificial or natural lighting to explain the glow.
She took the attached pictures to show me when she got home.

When the picture is examined closely, it appears that the glows is coming from
the picture itself—note the general lack of lighting all over and then the
lighting highlights on the painting frame and on the back side of the columns
in front of the painting.  Also, the glow is bright gold, instead of the red
and white rays which are usually depicted on a Divine Mercy image.

If you would like to confirm this, feel free to contact my wife on her cell
phone (904) 687-6469.  We live right up the road from you in St. Augustine.

Keep up the good work—I’ve been a daily reader of your Spirit Daily website for
years—God bless!

Via Crucis - 2003

 

 

 

       This powerful portrait of Jesus hangs in the Cave of the Milk chapel ("Lagrotte du Lait") in the Holy Land. A close-up of the face has circulated across the U.S. with claims that it moves or changes colors or causes healing. We don't know about that. We just know it's a beautiful picture with features congruent with the Shroud of Turin. Claims that it is imbued with the True Presence should not be accepted; only the Blessed Sacrament can claim that. The popularity of this picture spread when a Scranton, Pennsylvania, woman came back from a trip to Israel and found it among her photographs without remembering seeing it and had thousands of prints made. "The picture is now all over the world and the USA," said the woman, Jackie Haas. "I just wish that people would not be interested in where the picture came from, but look at the beauty and majesty of Christ. He is a portrait of love. It shows in this picture." While many thought at first that it materialized on the camera and was not an actual picture (at first no one was able to locate it in Israel), friends of ours from California found it at the Franciscan church and took a photo of the full portrait. Even if it didn't appear miraculously, it has had remarkable effects across America and may help us invoke Christ this Holy Week!
