Hundreds flock to Irish town for visions of Mary

Hundreds of people are flocking to a rural shrine in west Donegal this week amidst reports of a weeping statue, and crosses in the night sky.

The event which occurred on Tuesday night had been predicted by a Dublin based faith healer and clairvoyant, who claims to have regular visions and messages. Fourteen people gathered on Tuesday night at the Kerrytown shrine outside Dungloe, and shortly after 8 o'clock, they reported seeing crosses flash in the sky.

Those gathered say that they were stunned by apparition, which went on for a reported hour. One local man from Ardara, John Boyle, said:

“It was amazing. I am still on an emotional high. All but one person seemed to see the same thing."

Ballyfermot based clairvoyant, Joe Coleman, had said that the Virgin Mary had told him during a channelled message that she would appear on September 29, at 8pm. He added that he had seen the Blessed Virgin many times and that she had told him that he did not have to be in attendance on Tuesday last.

The alleged apparition began with crosses in the sky, and then those in attendance gazed at the white statue of our Lady, which began to change form.

“She appeared to have a human a head and she turned and she looked at people. She looked at the children who were at the front,” John recalled.

Other people described the statue turning blue and crying
