Señor Sto. Niño Image in Cebu City Allegedly Shed Tears
An image of Señor Sto. Niño from a house in Barangay Basak Pardo, Cebu City, was caught on camera allegedly shedding tears.
Statues shedding tears can be quite a powerful and often controversial subject. These phenomena are usually referred to as “weeping statues” and are often reported in religious contexts.
Many weeping statues are associated with religious figures, such as the Virgin Mary or saints, and are considered miraculous by believers. They are often seen as signs of divine intervention or messages from the divine.
Many weeping statues have been subject to investigation by both religious and secular authorities. While some phenomena are confirmed as genuine, others are debunked as hoaxes or results of natural processes.
These phenomena often capture significant public interest and can lead to widespread debate.
Recently, a video showing an image of Señor Sto. Niño seemingly shedding tears inside a house in Barangay Basak Pardo, Cebu City has captured widespread attention and gone viral. The video was recorded on July 26, 2024.
In the video, the owner of the statue can be seen repeatedly wiping what appears to be liquid from the left eye of the statue. Despite these efforts, the liquid, which many believe to be tears, continues to flow down the image’s cheek.
Some viewers reported getting goosebumps after seeing the video, finding the sight both surprising and moving. Reactions have varied widely, with some people expressing awe and others feeling skeptical.
As of Tuesday (July 30, 2024), the video has garnered 1.1 million views, along with 8,500 shares and 1,500 comments.
The image’s alleged crying has led to much speculation and discussion. While some see it as a miraculous sign, others remain uncertain and question the video’s authenticity.
