Here we go, folks. The statements are becoming more and more bold, with implications ever more consequential. For those waiting to see what role Jay Stratton may play, pay attention to what he flatly and unapologetically attests to in this trailer. #ufoSky

Delivering my first draft of my MFA thesis tomorrow and getting to cite Jacques Vallee, @dwpasulka, Jeff Kripal, @trevorpaglen, @pilgrim_travels, and @seance_book together has made these last few years an utter joy. Can’t wait to share something in the near future!

As a person of faith and experiencer of anomalous phenomena, I’m fascinated with how art and human history have been deeply affected and influenced by the miraculous and impossible. Felt Presence, my thesis show, opens October 24th at Towson University🧵

107 years ago today, “The Miracle of the Sun” occurred in Fatima, Portugal. The Virgin Mary appeared to three shepherd children earlier that year, promising that if they returned to that spot every month, she would make an undeniable sign appear to the crowds.

The Medjugorje Marian apparitions are declared “nihil obstat,” or “nothing stands in the way” for their popular devotion. The remaining step the Church can take, according to their new norms, would be for the Pope to declare them supernatural in origin.

Making a third-class relic of St Therese of Lisieux for my MFA thesis. This project has become increasingly personal, and thus, more difficult to tell. On the flip side, it’s been really rewarding to listen to her materials and to bring her “presence” home with me.

Help! I'm trying to find any details about this Marian Apparition which looks to be in Chile. Photo comes from National Geographic, sourcing from the Miracle Hunter's website, but I can't find anything about it. Any thoughts or leads?
