Witnesses at the church, located behind Government Model College, Makurdi, said the image, which was a carbon copy of the structure of Christ when he rose from death after he was crucified and buried, had on its head a crown, while the entire body was glittering, like precious stone.
It was learnt that the majority of people surging into the vicinity of the church came from the community while others were from the 23 local government areas of the state.
They were all eager to see the image themselves. It was also learnt that many Christians and non - Christians alike, on sighting the image which was accompanied by a bright light that overwhelmed the entire church, moved close to it and placed their hands on it.
They were shouting: “Jesus save me," "Jesus the son of God, have mercy on me.” One of the parishioners, Mr. Emmanuel Hembenkaan, told New Telegraph that he was shocked when he saw the image. He said the image was seen in the church for the first time since the church was established.
The Catholic Priest in charge of the church, Rev. Father Celestine Tyowua, declined comments, saying he would address the media after receiving approval from the Bishop of Makurdi Diocese, Wilfred Anagbe. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Roman Catholic Church! U guys are truly sick and lack knowledge.
ReplyDeleteEl Matosky, what exactly do you know about the Church that makes you conclude it is sick & lacks knowledge?
DeleteI suspect what you think you "know" has been fed m/told you by other non-Catholics but a true & thorough inquiry by you might show the weakness of those positions. The Catholic church traces her origin to Christ himself and is sustained by Him in perpetuity as He promised.
Please don't let the views of others influence yours, make your own inquiry and then form an opinion.
they should expect more of such images. it is only a pity that they have not really understand the hidden agenda of the one world religion. part of it is a spiritual appearance of the queen of heaven to many believers for deceptions.
ReplyDeletei read about this spiritual scheme over four years ago and I am seeing it manifesting now in nigeria
