“She opened the tabernacle to see if the hosts had dissolved yet and found spots of blood!” the post said. “She immediately showed the priest, they removed it from the water and kept it in the tabernacle. When I saw it today it looked like a very very thin piece of skin with blood on it.”
According to local news outlet The 812, several parishioners believe the red substance is the blood of Jesus Christ, and therefore a Eucharistic miracle, but the occurrence has not yet been confirmed as a miracle. The Archdiocese of Indianapolis may refer the possible Eucharistic miracle to the Rome-based Dicastery for the Doctrine of Faith for an investigation.
The Archdiocese of Indianapolis told CatholicVote in an email statement “a careful investigation, with assistance from a professional laboratory, is in progress.”
When CatholicVote contacted the parish, no one was immediately available for comment. WLWT 5 News, an NBC affiliate, reports that St. Anthony’s Church has said it does not want to comment until the investigation is concluded.
