Virgin Mary statue ‘sheds tears’ days before Pope’s death (video)

A statue of the Virgin Mary was filmed weeping two days before the Pope’s death, it’s been claimed. 

Footage, filmed at a church service in Columbia on Good Friday, April 18, shows the statue with tears running down its face, witnesses claim. 

The video was shared on social media and quickly went viral, with many claiming it was a miracle. 

It was recorded during a Sermon of the Seven Words at St John Eudes Parish, in Aguas Claras, in the department of Norte de Santander. 

The “Sermon of the Seven Words” refers to the seven sayings of Jesus Christ in the New Testament, which he reportedly said during his crucifixion. 

Posting under the video, one person wrote: “It’s a miracle, how beautiful.” 

Another said: “She’s really crying.” 
 

Speculating as to why she was “crying”, a third speculated: “It’s a sign that God doesn’t like human evil, and that’s why our mother cries in silence.” 

The Diocese in the nearby town of Ocana has so far not issued an official statement regarding the alleged miracle.
