1,000 pray with visionary in Shelby County field

About 1,000 people gathered in a Shelby County field Wednesday night to pray with a visionary who reports visions of the Virgin Mary.

Marija Lunetti, who claims to have been visited by the mother of Jesus every day since 1981, said the Virgin Mary appeared to her wearing a gray dress and a long veil. Lunetti said Mary prayed over the crowd, blessed the objects that they brought and said she would appear again tonight.

Wednesday’s vision occurred at 6:42 p.m. and lasted for about two minutes. Lunetti’s last public appearance during her visit here will be Friday at a field across from the headquarters of Caritas of Birmingham, which promotes the visions that began in Medjugorje, Yugoslavia, in 1981.
