In a statement made by the Bishop of Giza, the Coptic Orthodox Church in Warraq-Cairo-Egypt was visited by the Holy Virgin Mary from 1 AM till 4 AM.  The object that appears in the spires was taken by Amateur video.  This is a breaking news story and was first reported in Cairo on December 16^th 2009.  Before you conclude that this is a trick of light, the predominately Muslim Egyptian Government shut off the electric power to the Church to prove it was a hoax. The apparition continued to shine hours after the attempt to extinguish it. The simulacrum of the Virgin Mary in the light has not been declared a hoax.  In fact, the Church has stated that something indeed happened that night. Many Government Officials are worried that the appearance of this Christian Icon may cause a rift between Muslims and Christians. Is this a real apparition or is it something holographically projected, or is it tied to the other anomalies seen in Norway, Romania, and Russia?
