Image from the Our Lady of Guadalupe Web Site.
In most of her Apparitions, the Mother of God leaves no relics behind. Indeed, Our Lady is usually only visible to a single or to a small group of visionaries. For example, in the Apparitions at Lourdes Our Lady was only visible to St. Bernadette, and at Fatima, with the exception of a few miracles performed through her intercession, the only ones able to view the Apparitions were a group of children.
There are times, however, when Our Lady leaves behind proof of her visitations, often in the form of miraculously appearing images. At other times, she works through images already in existence, often animating them. It is these images that this page focuses on.
Please note that not all of these Apparitions have been approved by the Catholic Church or Orthodox Churches. This does not mean that they have been officially condemned, but merely that they have not received the official approval of the Papal or episcopal commissions required to validate such a miracle. Notations mark those Apparitions which have been approved and the level of approval.
This page is divided into three sections:
Quite a number of miraculously appearing images have been reported, from the Marian image reported in the rust stains on a car in Elsa, Texas, to the image in the windows of an office building near Tampa Bay, Florida. While all of these are interesting (and I will be preparing a page of them), the great degree of subjective interpretation required and the ambiguity of these pictures leads me to leave them out of this particular discussion. The images reported on this webpage are limited to those which do not require such subjective interpretations, and are largely those approved by the Church.
A A large photograph of Our Lady of Guadalupe on Juan Diego's Tilma is also available. This is located remotely at the Our Lady of Guadalupe Web Site.
In a series of four Apparitions, Our Lady appeared to Bl. Juan Diego, a young Indian convert. Our Lady of Guadalupe has become one of the most popular Apparitions of Our Lady, and she has become especially beloved in the Americas, and, indeed, she has been named Patroness of the Americas. Barely a Catholic in Texas cannot tell a questioner her story, and she is especially loved among the Hispanic population. She is also venerated the world over by both Roman Catholics and the Orthodox, and the pageholder knows a Catholic priest who has seen an almost life-size image of Our Lady of Guadalupe hanging in an Irish church. After the last Apparition to Bl. Juan Diego, returning to the bishop with the sign he had requested of the Virgin (without telling Bl. Juan), Bl. Juan opened his tilma and a cascade of Spanish roses fell to the ground. The bishop too fell to the ground upon his knees, not only because the sign had been fulfilled, but also because, imprinted upon Bl. Juan Diego's tilma was a miraculous image of Our Lady with Aztec features.
A tilma, also known as an ayate, is a cloth worn about the shoulders used by the Aztec population for a number of purposes, from protection against the cold (the Apparition occurred in December) to the carrying of objects, such as the Spanish roses. An ayate is pictured below.
The oldest known manuscript describing this Apparition is the Nican Mopohua manuscript, also known as the Huei Tlamahuitzoltica, which was written in the Aztec language of Nahuatl by the Indian scholar Antonio Valeriano. This was first printed in 1649, and the 1649 edition is pictured below. The original is now lost.

A number of miracle stories from Sir E. A. Wallis Budge's translation and compillation of Ethiopic miracle stories One Hundred and Ten Miracles of Our Lady Mary: Translated From Ethiopic Manuscripts (London: Humphrey Milford, Publisher to the Oxford University Press, 1933) have to do with miraculous images. One of these, that of a miraculously appearing portrait, is reproduced below. (Others are reproduced under Ethiopic Miracle Stories) in the Animated Images section of this document.

Please select a topic.
General Information The phenomenon of weeping icons and statues, particularly of Mary, but also of Christ and
the saints, is a relatively commonly reported supernatural occurance, particularly among the
Orthodox. Weeping and moving statues are also evident among Roman Catholics. Church
approval of these Apparitions among Catholics is very uncommon, due to the high amount of
scientific evidence required for confirmation in the Church. The weeping bust of Our Lady of
Syracuse in Italy, which was approved by Pope Pius XII, is among these few. (A section devoted
to this Apparition is forthcoming.) Among the Orthodox, an icon is typically exorcised and, if it
continues to weep, it is considered not to be a demonic manifestation. After the exorcism the
Faithful are free to venerate Mary through the object. It seems that among both groups it is not a
required tenant of the Faith to believe the manifestation to be the result of Divine intervention.
The phenomenon of weeping icons is discussed in:
Moore, Marvin. 1997. The Coming Great Calamity. Pacific Press Publishing
Association.
Chapter 1: Paradigm
Shift is available online.
Weeping icons as the object of pilgrimages is discussed in:
Hardenbrook, John Weldon, Fr. "The Place for Pilgrimage."
Again magazine, vol. 18, no. 1. The New York Area Skeptics has compiled a list of "Readings Recommended by the New
York Area Skeptics: Weeping Madonnas & Other Quasi-Religious Beliefs." A number of supposed weeping and moving as well as other miraculous images of Mary, as
well as of Jesus, are discussed at The Miracles Page,
specifically under the categories "Signs
of the Holy Mother," "Weeping
Statues," and "Images and
Icons."
From 1973 to 1981 a statue of the Virgin Mary reportedly bled and wept in Akita in Northern
Japan. The story of the Apparition is described in the following video:
Hill of Redemption. Ignatius Press Videos. Description.
Palmieri, Daniele. 1996, October. "Akita
Corrections." Inside the Vatican. Scientists attempting to explain the phenomenon of the statue at Ballinspittle -- which has
been observed by crowds to sway back and forth -- have claimed that in reality it was the people
swaying and not the statue. This can be read about in the following article:
Boxer, Sarah. 1985, October. "Those Who Sway Together Pray Together."
Discover, v. 6, pgs. 18-19.
Ms. Boxer's name does not appear anywhere in the article, but is provided by the Academic
Periodicals Catalog on the University of Texas
Homepage.
According to a reporter for Fate magazine, after its repair the statue at
Ballinspittle has begun to move again. This was discussed in Share International
as follows:
"Madonna Statue at Ballinspittle Rocks On" (in the column "Signs"). 1996, April. Share International.
Formerly the headquarters of Al Capone and still a hotbed of Mafia activity, in a discussion a
friend of mine once said of Cicero, "That place is evil." However, Cicero has also become a
hotbed of religious activity, thanks to the reported weeping of the Miraculous Lady of Cicero.
The Weeping Icon of Our Lady of Cicero is preserved at the Shrine of the Miraculous Lady
of Cicero in St. George Antiochian Orthodox Christian Church, which can be contacted at the
address below:
The church is open daily 11:00 am to 6:00 pm. Saturday Vespers are at 6:00 p.m.; Sunday
Matins are at 9:30 a.m.; the Sunday Divine Liturgy are at 10:30 a.m., typically ending at 12:30.
The validation of this weeping by the local Antiochian bishop was criticised by the local
atheistic skeptics organisation as follows:
Bloomberg, David. 1994, June. "Who's Crying Now?" (From the
column "REALLity Check.") The REALL News (official newsletter of the Rational
Examination Association of Lincoln Land), vol. 2, no. 6. On 10 December 1997 the Church of St. George was hit by a fire. Fortunately the icon of
Our Lady of Cicero was saved, and is now enshrined in the St. George Church Offices pending
repairs to the church. The fire can be read about as follows:
"Fire in Cicero."

World Watch"). 1996, April. Catholic World Report. "Italy: Caution on Weeping Statue" (in the column W
orld Watch"). 1997, March. Catholic World Report. According to the Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung of Germany, the blood on the
Little Madonna of Civitavecchia has been confirmed human. The weeping Madonna has been
designated a place of pilgrimage by Bishop Girolamo Grillo. (The bishop is, however, awaiting
Vatican approval of the weeping statue.) This is reported as follows:
1998, May. "Genuine Tears" (in the column "Signs"). 1998, May. Share International.
A number of articles and, more recently, a book by journalist Enrico Malatesta entitled
She Wept Into My Hands have reported on the weeping statue of Civitavecchia, and
according to Fabio Gregori, the statue's owner, some of what they have reported was only told to
members of the investigating committee of theologians in confidence. Mr. Gregori expressed
some disappointment in this in May of 1997. This is reported as follows:
"Publicity
'Leaks' In Story of Weeping Statue." 1997, 21 May. Catholic Online Vatican Update. The article is repeated in a slightly different format as follows:
"Publicity

Daily News Briefs. Associated with the Marian Apparitions and other phenomena claimed to be occuring in
Conyers is an icon of Our Lady which reportedly has begun to weep. More information on the
Conyers Apparitions is to be found at the Conyers
Website, maintained by the Apostolate which has sprung up around the claimed visionary,
Nancy Fowler. A testimonial to the weeping icon can be found in the following article:

The weeping icon of Panagia-Theotokos-Paranythia, Monastery of Eliakon, near Kykko,
Cyprus, began weeping an oil "like the sap of a pine tree" in 1997. Tears have also reportedly
come from the image of the Christ Child which the Virgin holds. A number of other icons around
Cyprus soon began weeping as well. The strange smell exuded from the tears is, acording to a
monk at the monastery, referred to in the Orthodox Church there as "evodia." This is discussed
in the following:
Hadjicostis, Menelaos. 1997, 7 February. "Weeping Icon Moves a

Weeping Icon at the Kykkos Monastery, Cyprus." Reuters News Service. Serfes, Demetrios, Fr., compiler. "Monasticism in Cyprus." A number of miracle stories from Sir E. A. Wallis Budge's translation and compillation of
Ethiopic miracle stories One Hundred and Ten Miracles of Our Lady Mary: Translated From

1933) have to do with animated icons. These are reproduced below. The descriptions come from
the book's table of contents, and the Roman numerals to the right are the page numbers for these
descriptions. The reference to healings from milk from the breasts of Mary seems to be peculiar
to Ethiopia, and is found in several of the miracles recounted in Sir Wallis Budge's book.

(How the VIRGIN MARY showed Archbishop BASIL a picture of herself which had been
painted by the angels) is recounted under Miraculously Appearing

A painting of Our Lady at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church reportedly began
weeping around September of 1995. As yet the Church apparently has not
conducted an official investigation. This was discussed in Share International
as follows:
"Weeping Painting of the Virgin Mary" (in the column "Signs"). 1996, April. Share International.
The icon of Our Lady of Klokochovo has had a long and strange history, and the original
weeping icon is now lost. In 1670, during the campaigns of the Hungarian Calvinist pillagers, the
icon of Our Lady of Klokochovo began to weep. The icon was slashed by the bayonette of one
of the "crusaders," enraged by the icon's tears, as they swept through the Church of the Holy
Dormition of Our Lady in Klokochovo, but was heroically saved by one of the townspeople and
hidden in the nearby woods as the church burned. The icon was translated for safekeeping to the
castle of Mukachevo by the Countess Bathory, following a stay in the town hall of Prjashev. But
rather than being translated to the town's church, as it was supposed to be, the icon was kept
within the Rakoczi family. It was confiscated by the imperial court in Vienna in 1711, and after
protests a copy was made for the town hall of Prjashev. This was donated to the bishop of
Prjashev in 1904 and restored and placed in the bishop's chapel 12 August 1907. The parishoners
of Klokochovo protested that he return the copy to them, but instead he had a third copy made
and enshrined in the church in 1913. Rome issued indulgences to pilgrims to this third icon in
Klokochovo in 1946. The original icon is now lost. All this is discussed in the pamphlet below:
"The Weeping Icon of
Klokochovo." Byzantine Leaflet Series no. 59. 1993, October. Pittsburgh, PA: Byzantine
Seminary Press. A larger
image may also be viewed. This larger image is located remotely in the St. Joseph Orthodox Church Icon
Library.
One of the most beloved of icons of the Carpatho-Rusyns is that of Our Lady of Marijapovch,
which first wept 14 November 1696 and again on 8 to 19 December 1696. This icon was taken
by Leopold I, Emperor of Austria, but it was replaced with a copy through the kindness of Count
Carbelli, a chamberlain of Emperor Leopold, who witnessed the devotion paid to the icon as it
stopped at railway stations along the way to Vienna. This copy wept the first three days of
August, 1715, and the thrid weeping of Our Lady of Marijapovch occurred December, 1905. The
Weeping Icon of Our Lady of Marijapovch is discussed in the article below:
"The Weeping Icon of
Marijapovch on the 300th Anniversary of the First Miraculous Weeping." A marble statue of the Madonna in Mura reportedly has wept tears of blood. It is reported as
follows:
Font, Carmen. 1998, May. "Crying Madonna in Mura, Spain" (in the column "Signs"). Share International.
The myrrh-weeping icon of Our Lady of New Sarov is preserved at the Shrine of the Mother
of God at Christ of the Hills Russian Orthodox Monastery, whose address is printed below:
In New Sarov, a small monastic community just outside of Blanco, Texas, made up of Christ
of the Hills Monastery and the attatched Convent, an icon of the Vladimir type which had been
written in 1983 by an Orthodox monk in California began to weep tears of myrrh on 24 April
1985 (7 May by the Russian calender). The icon wept continuously until October of the Russian
year, and since then, according to a monk at the monastery, has continued to weep intermittently
almost every day. The icon can, however go for up to two weeks without weeping. 24 April has
since then been celebrated as the icon's Feast Day, and all pilgrims, regardless of Faith, are
welcomed at the monastery and annointed with Our Lady's tears. The weeping icon is discussed
in the book Miracles in the Last Days, which is now under preparation.
Christ of the Hills Monastery has recently dedicated a website entiteld The Weeping Icon: The Mother of
God Icon of New Sarov. See especially the website's exclusive "A Miracle for Baby Sara."
The Monastery publishes a pamphlet on the icon distributed widely, available below.
Shrine of the Blessed Virgin Mary. N. d. Blanco,
Texas: n. p. (This is a pamphlet available from Christ of the Hills Russian Orthodox Monastery.)
Shrine of the Blessed Virgin Mary. N. d. Blanco,
Texas: n. p. (This is a pamphlet pinned to the Shrine's souvenir pins available for sale at Christ
of the Hills Russian Orthodox Monastery. It is not identical to the other pamphlet of the
same name, though it contains excerpts from that pamphlet.)
The monks at New Sarov send out tears of myrrh from the icon absorbed in cotton balls to
any in need who write to the above address, as well as to all pilgrims who visit the shrine and
attend the tour. (This is discussed on the local Free Relics By Mail
page.) Enlosed with the tear are instructions for its use in annointing the sick, as

On 1 June 1998, the pageholder visited the icon of Our Lady of New Sarov, although I did
not witness the icon weep. My journal entry was printed in the June 1998 issue of State of
unBeing, and is available below, although I have corrected two places where I did not
exchange the handle of SoB writer Crux Ansata for his real name, and I have added links
and otherwise made the file appropriate for hypertext. The original article as printed is available
in SoB No. 47.

Our Lady of New Sarov is discussed on the "Images and Icons" page of The Miracles Page, run
by the publishers of the magazine Share
International. Bette Stockbauer of Share International also visited the shrine
and interviewed Fr. Pangratios, a monk there. Her article and interview is online as follows:
Stockbauer, Bette. "'Make
Straight the Way of the Lord': The Weeping Icon at Christ of the Hills." The icon is also often covered in the local media, including in the following stories:
Belile, Liz. 1998, 28 May-3 June. "'Round Yonder Virgin:
Blanco's Weeping Icon Sheds Some Light." Houston Press: Night and Day. The account by another who visited the icon and saw it weep is as follows:
De Wilde, Jean-Pierre. The Weeping
Icon. 24 April 1985 (7 May by the Russian calender), the anniversary of the first
weeping of the icon, has been named the icon's Feast Day, and this day is regularly celbrated at
the monastery. In 1997 the monks at Christ of the Hills' daughter monastery at Boscobel,
Wisconsin, joined the monks at Christ of the Hills to celebrate the first weeping's twelfth
anniversary. This was later reported in the monastery's newsletter, as follows:
"12th Anniversary of the Weeping Icon."
1997, August. The Christ of the Hills Monastery Chronicle, the newsletter of Christ of
the Hills Monastery, vol. 23, no. 1, pgs. 2-3.
In Phoenix, Arizona, Patricia Mundorf -- a woman who was severely injured by an attacker
and permanently brain-damaged, but who believes she has miraculously regained the use of her
legs through Our Lady's intercession -- claims to be recieving messages from the Blessed Virgin
under the title Our Mother of the World. Associated with these Apparitions are two statues of
Our Lady, which are said to on occasion weep blood. (There is also an associated statue of Our
Lord, said to have bled from His Sacred Heart on two days in August of 1998.) The Diocese of
Phoenix is examining Ms. Mundorf's claims. The public is invited to visit Ms. Mundorf's home on
the first Saturday of each month, as well as on the Friday of each remaining week during the
Apparitions.
Information on the bleeding statues and the messages Ms. Mundorf claims to have recieved
regarding them is provided here.
(Information on the bleeding Sacred Heart
is also available.) This is located remotely at Mary, Queen of All Hearts Webpage.
On 18 July 1989, six icons reportedly began to weep at the Greek Orthodox
Shrine of St. Michael in Tarpon Springs in Tampa Bay. One of these icons, that pictured above,
was inspected by Dr. Gary P. Posner, M.D., head of the Tampa Bay Skeptics. Dr. Posner
discovered some apparent contradictions in the testimony of Fr. Christos Matos, one of the priests
in charge, and discovered that the icon above is apparently actually merely a photograph of an
icon in Chicago reported to weep while the latter icon was weeping, and that the icon in Tampa
Bay was not weeping. Unfortunately, Dr. Posner seems to have ignored the five other
reportedly weeping icons, and the claim that Fr. Matos later told a member of the Tampa Bay
Skeptics that the icon was not weeping does not hold to the rigorous standards skeptics claim to
keep. A number of aspects in this case remain unclear in Dr. Posner's report. Fr. Matos was
later transfered to another church. Versions of Dr. Posner's report were are available in
various periodicals and the World Wide Web as below:
Posner, Gary P. 1989, Fall. "Tampa Bay's 'Weeping Icon' Fiasco." Tampa Bay Skeptics
Report.
Posner, Gary P. 1990, Summer. "Tampa Bay's 'Weeping Icon' Fiasco." Skeptical
Inquirer.
Posner, Gary P. 1989. "Tampa Bay's 'Weeping Icon'
Fiasco." Homepage version. As reported by the Toronto Sun, after Mass one Sunday in 1996 an icon
of Our Lady of Kazan at Mother Prtaitissa, Sts. Raphael, Nikolaos and Irene Church in the
East York district of Toronto reportedly began to "weep," exuding moisture from a point
towards the crown of the image's head. This is discussed on the "Images and Icons"
page of The Miracles
Page, run by the publishers of the magazine Share International. This icon
was also discussed in the pages of Share International as follows:
Hargrave, Connie. 1997, March. "Visit to the Weeping
Madonna Icon in Toronto." Share International.
The Weeping Icon of Toronto was discussed in the Skeptical Inquirer,
the organ of the athiestic Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal
as follows:
Nickell, Joe. 1997, March-April. "Something to Cry About: The Case of the Weeping
Icon." Nisbet, Matthew. 1997, September. "Weeping Icon in Toronto" (in the column
"CSICOP in the
News").
Skeptical Briefs, vol. 7, no. 3. The priest involved in this case, Fr. Ieronimos Katseas, was also assigned to St.
Irene Chrysovalantou Greek Orthodox Church while an icon there of (Orthodox) St. Irene
wept and during the contriversial theft and return of the icon and the theft's aftermath. This is
discussed in the Reliquary of St. Irene Chrysovalantou.
Just before Thanksgiving, 1997, an icon of Our Lady of Perpetual Help reportedly started
seeping oil in a woman's home. This partucular report is rather unusual in that the whole icon
seeps oil. (In most cases the moisture exuded from an image comes from a single or a set of
defined sources, usually the eyes.) Also, in an unusual act of ecumenism this icon, which began to
seep oil in the home of an Antiochian Orthodox Christian, made a tour not only of Orthodox
Churches in the area but also stopped at a Roman Catholic Church. Like most other animated
holy images, this icon is reportedly associated with miraculous cures as well. The Detroit
News covered this icon in March of 1998 in the "Accent" section of their paper, as follows:
Accent. 1998, 26
March. The Detroit News. Hodges, Michael H. 1998, 26 March. "'Miracle' Draws
Faithful." The Detroit News. Terek, Donna. 1998, 26 March. "Weeping Icon --

respect to miraculous healings. Some of these are pictured on the following webpage:
