Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could direct me to some of the most profound and prominent catholic miracles which have been recorded. I am looking for things on the same order as bleeding hosts and incorruptibles.

The miraculous healings at Lourdes are probably the best example, because the Church has a special 30-member committee of experts which examines them and certifies that they could have not happened naturally. The committee is very discerning; out of thousands of claims, they have certified only 67.

Look up Our Lady of Fatima’s Miracle of the Sun on October 13, 1917. There were 70,000 witnesses, many of whom were nonbelievers.

The miracle of the dancing sun at Fatima, witnessed by approximately 70,000 people, professed even by secular newspapers at the time to be “out of the ordinary”. The sun was also reported to have dried up the onlookers’ wet clothes, which scientists have said would have needed the energy of a 10-megaton nuclear bomb, yet onlookers remained alive and well.

Apparition at Fatima predicts both world wars, consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart, and a third secret which I can’t really remember (was it the attempted assassination of the Pope?)

The tilma miraculously produced at the approved apparition site in Guadalupe, which has been studied by scientists to have many miraculous features, such as colours that are unreproducible by human hands, a facial expression that goes beyond the ability of even the best artists, as well as surviving a bomb blast that occurred underneath it (If memory serves me correct).

The Battle of Lepanto was won by the Holy League against a much stronger and fiercer Muslim fleet, through the invocation of Our Blessed Virgin Mary.

Padre Pio cures a woman with no pupils so she can see; Padre Pio has been said to have the ability to bilocate (appear in different places simultaneously), and also apparently predicted that Karol Wojtyla would “rise to the highest ranks of the Church” (namely, to be Pope John Paul II). All of this however doesn’t even touch the surface of the many miracles Padre Pio performed whilst on Earth!

The “coincidences” that occurred concerning the devotion of the Divine Mercy (St. Faustina predicts that her Diary speaking of the Divine Mercy will be temporarily despised by the Church authorities (it was a forbidden book for a time), and then will be approved later. This came to be true when Pope John Paul II initiated an investigation into the matter, removing the Diary from the index of forbidden books. It’s important to note the coincidences here: Both were Polish, Pope John Paul II died on the vigil of the Divine Mercy)

Our Blessed Virgin Mary converts Alphonse Ratisbonne, the “19th century’s Richard Dawkins” through the Miraculous Medal.

Our Blessed Virgin Mary appears at Zeitoun, Egypt (apparition confirmed and approved by the Coptic Church), inevitably converting thousands of Muslims to the Catholic faith.

Ongoing miraculous healings at the apparition site in Lourdes, France

Eucharistic miracle in Lanciano, Italy

Miraculous staircase in Loretto, Italy; Engineers have said it defies all laws of civil engineering.

St. Joseph of Cupertino is reported to have been able to levitate, contrary even to his own wishes (If memory serves me correct, he was flogged everytime he started “flying”)

Fr. Putigan receives a miraculous rose from St. Therese’s intercession.

This is from the top of my head. There might be some slight discrepancies, but overall this is by and large correct. I am a sucker for Catholic miracles (both anecdotal and official)

Fact: The Catholic Church remains to be the only Church with a historical procession of rigorously approved miracles. No other religion/denomination can match this feat.
