New Miracle in Mexico? Catholic Church's Monstrance Palpitates Like a 'Beating Heart' [WATCH]
Devotees in a Catholic church in Mexico's Jalisco state seemed to have caught a miracle right before their eyes. A churchgoer managed to catch the astonishing occurrence on the camera and uploaded it online.
Dubbed as "miraculous" by many churchgoers, a Mexican Archdiocese has urged people to exercise caution on what they say.
It was not the first time that Jalisco state has seen a puzzling moment in their churches, as earlier this year, a Virgin of Fatima statue reportedly cried oil and blood.
Mexico: Jalisco Catholic Church Monstrance Beating Like A Heart
The unexplainable moment was caught on camera at one of Mexico's Jalisco most prominent Catholic churches, Mexico News Daily reported.
In a holy mass last week at the Nuestra Señora del Rosario church in the town of Zapotlanejo, the church's monstrance shocked churchgoers after it "palpitated" like a heart.
In the Twitter video that one of the del Rosario church patrons posted, the vessel that contained the consecrated Eucharistic host can be seen beating, to the crowd's silent bewilderment. The original tweet has already amassed more than 15,000 views and over 300 retweets.
The priest leading the Mass, Rev. Carlos Spahn, described the incident as "miraculous," adding that a medical doctor had reviewed the video clip and concurred that the monstrance was indeed "mimicking" a beating heart.
However, Guadalajara Archdiocese representative Rev. Antonio Gutiérrez Montaño believes otherwise. Montaño has urged devotees to be prudent about what they see online.
As of this writing, there has been no formal request for an investigation on the "miraculous" monstrance beating from the Archbishop, who Gutiérrez Montaño revealed to be "hesitant" in believing such "miracles."
Gutiérrez Montaño noted that the best thing to do is to be "very cautious, very prudent, and know that the real eucharist, the concrete one, doesn't require supernatural elements." He added that "the celebration of each Mass that we attend as believers is a miracle."
The Archbishop's representative noted that a more rigorous investigation will take place, considering scientific evidence, witness testimonies, and even doctrinal analysis.
Meanwhile, netizens who saw the video online see the recent "miracle" as a gift from God. An unexplainable occurrence like this is not new to Spahn, as he revealed that he experienced a similar "miracle" earlier that day.
Blessed Carlo Acutis Image in Mexico's Jalisco Church Oozing With Oil
As reported by Catholic News Agency, Rev. Carlos Spahn told ACI Prensa that another miracle happened before the holy monstrance has inexplicably beaten like a heart.
Hours before what happened in the Mexican parish, Spahn noted that he had blessed a picture frame with an image of Blessed Carlo Acutis, who reportedly had a "deep devotion" to eucharistic miracles like the one that recently transpired.
But the photo, which was sealed in glass, began to ooze oil later that night, Spahn said. Acutis' mother, Antonia, reportedly contacted Spahn shortly after the beating monstrance went viral, but both agreed not to call it a miracle because the Catholic church must confirm it first.
"We are only saying that it's an extraordinary occurrence that has no explanation to our limited natural science. We didn't find any explanation," Spahn said.
