* May 5 – Coptic Patriach Cyril VI approves the Zeitoun apparitions in Cairo (Egypt, 1968)  * An extraordinary apparition in many respects --- An initiative of the Association Mary of Nazareth  May 5 – Coptic Patriach Cyril VI approves the Zeitoun apparitions in Cairo (Egypt, 1968)  An extraordinary apparition in many respects The apparitions of the Virgin Mary on top of a Coptic church in Zeitoun, Egypt, which began on April 2, 1968, were extraordinary in more ways than one:  They were witnessed by Muslim auto mechanics and drivers, and lasted several months, even years  Countless people, Christian and Muslim alike–sometimes crowds of 250,000 people–testified to having seen the apparition  The apparitions were accompanied by extraordinary and verifiable phenomena–visible in photos–and many healings  The bishops who served on the Inquiry Commission of the Coptic Orthodox Patriarchate of Egypt saw these apparitions too. The official recognition was issued by Pope Cyril VI, the Orthodox Patriarch of Alexandria, on May 5, 1968  The Catholic Coptic Patriarch immediately added his approval and no one ever contradicted the facts. No other religion has ever made known a similar supernatural occurrence. www.lafoichretienne.com Let’s pray together  Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of death. Amen.   .
