From Times Wire Reports
Mexico’s Catholic Church ruled out any divine origin for an image on a hospital wall that thousands of pilgrims are flocking to venerate in the belief that it shows the country’s patron saint, the Virgin of Guadalupe.
The shadowy figure appears every night when a light is switched on in the patio of a clinic in Ensenada. The image, which appears to be a shadow, was first reported to hospital authorities on April 19.
