Ep. 78: The Lady in Blue

January 11, 2020

 In 1629 a group of Jumano Indians suddenly appeared at a New Mexico mission, eager to learn more about Christianity.  The excited and grateful Franciscan priests wondered what motivated this sudden interest.  The tale the Indians told seemed unbelievable.  A "lady in blue" had appeared to them instructing them to seek out the priests and teaching the Indians the sign of the cross.  That sounded incredible enough but what really stunned the priests was that they had just received a letter from Spain relating the story of a nun telling the exact same tale...half a world away.  Is the Lady in Blue a myth...or a miracle?  You decide in the latest episode of Wise About Texas.
