This wonderful collection of accounts by everyday people includes stories of the silently weeping statues of Mary in Japan; apparitions of Mary in Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Poland and Portugal; and of the statue of Mary in Sri Lanka that has been at the centre of a number of miracles, including during the 2004 tsunami. Mary also appeared to millions in Zeitun, Egypt uniting Muslims and Coptic Christians, and was inspiration to a young Polish boy who became a world leader.
Told simply and honestly these remarkable stories by everyday people allow the reader to experience the beauty and grace of these miraculous events, regardless of their background.
