Church marble scene our lady of knock statue

The background of our lady of knock statue:

Around 8 p.m. on August 21, 1879, 15 people from the village of Knock, County Mayo, Ireland, witnessed our Lady of Knock Statue, St. Joseph, St. John the Evangelist, a lamb, and a cross on the gable altar of their parish church. Witnesses watched for two hours in the pouring rain and chanted the Rosary. The entire back wall of the church was bathed in brilliant lights that could be seen from a distance. Everything was lifted about two feet off the ground. There was an altar with a lamb with a cross on it. The altar and the lamb, surrounded by angels, hovered above. Around them were golden stars or small, bright lights that sparkled like marbles.

The beautiful image of our lady of knock statue:

On the left of the altar are three figures: St. Joseph on the left, Our Lady of Knock Statue in the middle, and St. John the Evangelist on the right. St. Joseph, whose hair and beard was grey, leaned respectfully toward Mary. Dressed in the holy garments of mass, with the sharp horns of a bishop on his head, St. John holds a book in his left hand and raises his blessing in his right. Our lady of Knock Statue life-size; The other two are smaller.” Our Lady of Knock Statue looks up to the sky and shows her hands. Mary is very pretty. She wore a white robe and sash. The veil flowing from the back of her head to her feet. Our Lady of Knock Statue wears a gold crown on its head. Between the rim of the crown and the veil was a golden rose. Mary is almost rainbow-colored.
