Brother Hudelot pointed into the air. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing “Miracle!” he shouted, “Miracle!” All eyes followed his arm, up into the air, above the Altar. The monstrance was suspended in mid-air, right above where the Altar had been, but now without any visible means of support. It was slightly bent forward, and the left arm of the small cross on top, seemed to touch the bars of the gate of the choir railing. It was unbelievable. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing. As the smoke began to clear, and their eyes adjusted to the scene before them, it was a paradox. Below, on the ground, were broken and twisted candlesticks. The sacred stone which had been attached to the Monstrance was shattered in three pieces. All that was left of the table was four charred legs. The Tabernacle was melted. Yet the Monstrance with the two Consecrated Hosts were perfectly intact, floating safely above the broken fragments.
