Woman's statue of the Virgin Mary appears to weep

FRESNO, CA (FOX NEWS) - There’s an amazing site at a California woman’s home. It’s a statue of the Virgin Mary appearing to weep. The owner calls it a miracle.

Maria Cardenas told TV station KFSN she got the statue as a Mother's Day gift 10 years ago, but it didn't start to "cry" until her cousin was murdered about a year and a half ago.

Visitors flocked to her home to see it for themselves, and Cardenas says her door is open to anyone to witness.

Cardenas said she collected the "tears" in a glass.

A reporter at the home watched one of the tears fall and said, “It was oily and smelled like roses. And another tear immediately started building up.”
