She's back for Samoa attention

The Mother of God- last sighted in Mexico, on a restaurant griddle- has reappeared on an office building in Samoa, apparently still holding the rosary she had when she made her appearance a few years ago on the wall beneath the Fullerton Avenue overpass in my native Chicago.

Besides quoting a Catholic priest as idolatrously equating the Blessed Virgin with God, the AFP account provides another piece of embarrassing information for those who go in for this sort of thing: the building in question is owned by a Congregational church. They don't go in for rosary beads, so I guess her choice of location can't be cited as an argument that the Blessed Virgin is a Protestant.
