CROWD FLOCK TO HOSPITAL AS 'VISION' OF THE VIRGIN MARY APPEAR ON THE WINDOW

Crowds of Catholics flocked to a Malaysian hospital to hold a prayer vigil in front of what they believe to be a vision of the Virgin Mary which has 'miraculously' appeared on one of the building's windows.

The group, who are convinced that the mysterious mark on the seventh floor window represents the much revered mother of Jesus Christ, say that they can also see a second image of her son two windows away. They have been lighting candles praying and singing hymns close to the image. Some described it as a 'miracle'. One of the worshipers said she believes Mary, mother of God, has a message for them, as she is looking down on them and then at a Malaysian flag and that they can also see Jesus moving.

Father Lawrence Andrew, editor of Malaysian Catholic newsletter The Herald, said that the church would need to investigate and verify the authenticity of the images and 'the experiences of the witnesses'.
