 Pictures Of Our Lady Of Fatima Statue

Does It Come to Life?

"My wife, Carol and I live about 15 minutes from the Padre Pio Spiritual Center located in Barto, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.  On Thursday, May 19, 2005, we went to the center to venerate the life size traveling picture of Our Lady of Guadalupe which was on display. About 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Carol suggested that we go into Our Lady of Grace Chapel to take pictures of Our Lady of Fatima statue which was loaned to the Center for the month of May. The statue is owned by Larry and Dotty Concio. I took several pictures of the statue from different positions using a Pentax 35mm zoom camera. These two pictures were taken one or two seconds apart, as soon as the film advanced in my camera I took the second picture without changing any settings on the camera.  One photo shows exactly how the statue appears. In the other photo, the statue's face has life-like features and the entire photo has a gold tint.  We want to share this picture with all who are interested."
