The Image Of Jesus
This beautiful image is from a painting by Zabateri,
an Italian artist.
It hangs in the Mother Cabrini Shrine in Colorado
and in the Milk Grotto in Bethlehem.
Its recent popularity is attributed to
an unexplained event which happened in 1982.
It was then that Jackie Haas of eastern PA took
a trip to the Holy Land,
and upon having her photographs developed,
found this image, both print and negative,
among them! She did not remember even
seeing the painting. After searching for its origin
and finding nothing,
she concluded that it was a gift from God.
We do caution you that there are several
misleading stories which have been circulated
about this picture in an attempt to destroy
the tremendous good it has inspired.
The image has been in the Church for centuries.
Accept it for what it is ...
a beautiful and powerful gift. |
