Our Lady of the Miracles

 

Corbetta, Italy (1555)

 

On the façade of San Nicolas de Corbetta was painted a beautiful picture Madonna,seated on her  throne with the Child.  

Legend says that on April 17, 1555 the Child Jesus left the table and went to the Plaza to play ball with three  children. The Madonna, surprised by the escape of  the Child, also went down to the s  square, to reprimand  him, as a good mother. 

From that time the church became a place of pilgrimage and many  miracles were documented. Thus Pope Paul IV called  her Our Lady of Miracles.

The sudden healing of  the deaf mute child send surprise and excitement throughout the region.
