Statue of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Discovered Untouched by Devastating Forest Fire

According to reports from local officials, a completely intact statue of Our Lady of Mount Carmel was discovered untouched during a recent forest fire that destroyed nearly 500 acres of vegetation in North Santander in Colombia.

The statue was found in the municipality of Pamplona, Colombia. Images of the statue went viral on social networks. The pictures are readily available on the internet.

According to a report in local media Correo Expreso, volunteers administering aid and donations discovered the undamaged statue. The Office of the Mayor of Pamplona shot a video at the site. During the video, Klaus Faber Mogollón, the mayor of Pamplona points out that the fire jumped across the road to the area where the statue is located. “Don’t ask me why, (but) nowhere in the grotto, not even in the back, is there any damage,” the mayor says.

So far, this environmental catastrophe hit eight Colombian departments. The North Santander has taken action to control the fire, which has been declared a public calamity.
