Jesus image seen on screen
United Press International
DELC AM BRE , La. —
Thousands of people have gathered
in the muddy backyard of Lois Lin
den to gaze at her kitchen window
screen that they say bears visions of
Jesus and dead relatives.
“I see Jesus on there/’ said Isabel
Simmons, Linden’s mother. I see
the cross, too. Some people see the
crown of thorns and say he looks
sad. ”
Since Linden first reported seeing
the vision of Christ in the screen on
March 7, thousands of pilgrims.
some packing sandwich lunches for
day-long vigils, have stared at the
rectangular, dusty screen in rain and
sun. The crush has been so heavy
that police have had to impose a 9
p.m. curfew.
Some persons report seeing long-
lost relatives and dead children,
some strange numbers and writing.
Jacqueline Pisani of New Iberia,
La., said her brother showed her a
photograph he had taken of the
screen.
“In the picture, it appears to be an
image of our child (who died two
years ago),” Pisani said Tuesday.
“Some people think I’m crazy, but I
see a little boy. I know that I saw it.”
Pisani said she was skeptical at first
of the sensational reports emanating
from the Iberia-Vermilion Parish
border town. But that’s when she
made a first-hand visit.
“When I looked I did see an image
of Christ, ” she said. “It could be my
imagination. But the fact that every
one is seeing things makes me
wonder.”
Anywhere from 10,000 to 20,000
people have visited the screen.
