| | January 20, 1999: Henderson: The Next Lourdes? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) |
 | | Fodera, a professional artist who has painted for National Geographic and Sunkist Graphics, is completely sincere about his latest work. |
 | | The paintings are simply excellent examples of realistic portraiture (okay, okay, I know that a "realistic" portrayal of Jesus and Mary isn't possible), the kind of work that has been Fodera's bread and butter for most of his adult life, but the artist's sincerity and the solace he gains from his work are contagious. |
 | | Although Fodera gives vague, though tantalizing, details about a miracle that occurred to him that included a visit from the Blessed Mother herself, he does not believe that his Miracle Paintings are going to be the next Lourdes or Medjugorje. |
