A digital photo of the alleged occurrence appears to show Mary with her eyelids closed and her mouth slightly more open compared to the original statue.
Worshippers in Ohio were left stunned when a statue of the Virgin Mary, commissioned over 75 years ago, seemingly blinked as they looked at it, with photos documenting the mysterious event. The International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Our Lady of Fatima was traveling through the region as part of a tour when it reportedly closed and reopened its eyes on August 2 while being displayed at the Basilica of St. John the Baptist.
This church is located in Canton, a city recognized as the birthplace of the NFL and the location of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Several visitors to the iconic statue have reported experiencing medical miracles, including a young boy whom some believe was healed of malaria.
