Michoacan, a small family church in Morelia, has since become the center of widespread attention reports emerged from a statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe, weeping what appears to be blood.
The statue represents one of the most revered figures: Our Lady of Guadalupe, known for her apparitions dating back to the 16th century.
The Archdiocese of Morelia has urged caution and a measured approach to claims of the supernatural. In a recent statement, church officials announced the start of a thorough investigation to determine the nature of the phenomenon.
The archdiocese emphasizes the importance of a careful and comprehensive analysis and has refrained from drawing premature conclusions about the veracity of the miracle.
“It is necessary to emphasize the need for caution when approaching an issue as delicate as that of an alleged miracle,” the Archdiocese of Morelia said in a statement.
“[We are] taking the necessary measures to investigate the situation in depth and exhaustively. Therefore, it is still too early to take a definitive position on this.”
“It will be the church hierarchy itself that confirms the team that will conduct the detailed study of the case, so as soon as there is a relevant report or conclusion, it will be made public.”
Church authorities have confirmed that a specialized team will be appointed to conduct an in-depth investigation into the matter. The findings of this investigation will be released to the public once a conclusive report is available.
As the investigation continues, the church has become a place of pilgrimage. “I felt a feeling that I have never felt before, like joy but also real sadness, because she tells us: what will happen only she knows, it is a miracle and hopefully it is a miracle that is good for everyone. ‘, said one of the locals.
