Virgin Mary Apparition Caught on Camera (3 photos)
A photo taken by a parishioner at Our Lady of Perpetual Help shows a illuminating human figure that appears to be the Virgin Mary. This miraculous story was reported by WGN-TV Chicago.
One north suburban Catholic Church is talking about a very thought provoking picture, shot with nothing more than an Iphone.
One woman snapped a photo last Friday in the chapel of Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Glenview and says she got so much more.
Maureen Kent has been attending Eucharistic adoration at the church for more than 2 years. Kneeling last Friday, she wanted a picture of the Eucharist or host in the monstrance, the ornate gold stand it’s placed in.
The picture showed a bright light, an image larger than a human and appearing to hover next to the host on the alter. Catholics believe the host is the True Body of Christ.
No photo-shopping, she says, no doctoring the digital image. Just what she calls a great surprise when she looked at her screen.
Her friends in the chapel also believe it is the Virgin Mary. Authentication is not, right now, a consideration by Maureen Kent or even the church. They are relishing what they call a miraculous moment, privileged to have seen and believed, they say.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish is located at 1755 Grove St. in Glenview, IL
National Park Service | Wikipedia audio article
The National Park Service (NPS) is an agency of the United States federal government that manages all national parks, many national monuments, and other conservation and historical properties with various title designations. It was created on August 25, 1916, by Congress through the National Park Service Organic Act and is an agency of the United States Department of the Interior. The NPS is charged with a dual role of preserving the ecological and historical integrity of the places entrusted to its management, while also making them available and accessible for public use and enjoyment.
As of 2018, the NPS employs approximately 27,000 employees who oversee 418 units, of which 60 are designated national parks.
Virgin Mary appears in the sky
The figure appeared in the clouds above Tonga, leading some people to claim it was a miracle.
According to local reports resident Joey Mataele spotted a cloud in the shape of Mary, that was then lit up by the sun as he photographed it.
It was taken above his brother’s house in the village of Halaleva in Tongatapu.
Mr Mataele said the clear outline of a head, body and feet, coupled with the golden glow, led him to believe it was a sign from the heavens.He uploaded the image online with the caption: “This is an image that was unexpected and I know it's a miracle in my life.
Thank you Lord for everything you've provided for me and my family.”
Some have said the image was that of the Virgin Mary, but others, including Mr Mataele’s niece, Onelua, told 7 News Online it was the image of Jesus.
She said: We all thought it was an image of Jesus. We were shocked, it was pretty random to see that.It looks like Jesus himself sent this message, and someone out there really needed enough for him to do it.
Of course, sceptics point out that religious sightings such as these are just the effects of pareidolia, when the brain tricks the eyes into seeing familiar objects such as faces or animals in patterns or textures such as a rock surface or clouds.Once an active imagination is added to the mix, the possibilities are endless

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
