Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton lived from 1774 to 1821, a convert to the Catholic belief, Ms. Seton was the founder of the Sisters of Charity organization in America. In addition, Elizabeth was the first person born in the United States to be canonized and honored as a Saint. Whereas, a number of miracles, religious signs and symbols have been named after the Saint in what has become known as The Seton Miracles.
One of the individuals which was treated and cured by Ms. Seton was that of Anne Theresa O'Neil whom was diagnosed with a fatal form of leukemia at the age of four. It was the acceptable and credible cure which Elizabeth treated Anne with which placed the woman in Sainthood. Sainthood which began in 1975 when Ms. Seton was canonized and officially made a Saint by Pope Paul VI.
The miracles which acquired the honor of being named after the Saint are numerous. At the same time, there are skeptics whom believe these miracles have been nothing less than hoaxes created by the Catholic church for shock and awe. Whereas, those whom have been present when a statue wept, or a priest whom has the signs of the stigmata would most likely opt to disagree.
Some of the most well known of these mystical occurrences include the statue Our Lady of Medjugorje weeping at a meeting of the SEAS's Knights of Columbus in Spring of 1992. In addition, many other statues have also been reported to weep. Whereas, a number of blessings, healings, beautiful smells, changing colors in rosary beads, statues turning different colors while being gazed upon and other supernatural events also occurred from 1991 through mid-late 1993.
All in all, there have been hundreds of statues in numerous locations which have been reported to weep. In addition, there have also been reports of pictures with moving images and crucifixes which bleed. One of the most interesting of these miracles is that of the stigmata which effected Father Jim about a month after having witnessed an Our Lady of Statue weep at the family home the previous Thanksgiving.
While being pressured for additional information, the parishioner whom reported the stigmata and other incidents indicated the information had been provided by someone else. After which, the staff member found Father Jim in the rectory and notified the priest of the incidents. At which time, the priest informed the staff member that the miracles were real and had started the previous Thanksgiving in which an Our Lady of Grace statue at the family home had actually wept.
During the conversation between the staff member and Father Bruse regarding these events, a rather small Madonna statue made of plastic sitting on the credenza began to cry. In this case, with water flowing rapidly from the eyes down across the cheekbones, the term crying was the only possible term which could be used to explain the experience. Whereas, most other statues had been reported as weeping in the past.
There have been reports of over 2 dozen icons made of different materials which have been seen weeping around the world. In addition, there have been some enclosed in glass cases which have appeared to weep. In particular, there were some in a glass case in the rectory at the church in Virginia which appeared to weep when Father Jim was visiting for a church dinner.
