Global InformationAngelik Caruana information
Angelik Caruana is a resident of Birżebbuġa in Malta who has reported a series of visions of the Virgin Mary since 21 April 2006, including a number of times at a hill in Borġ in-Nadur where he delivered monthly messages to the public.
Caruana originally made headlines in 2006 when he claimed that a statue of the Virgin Mary in his home was weeping blood and oozing oil.[1] The blood was later identified as Angelik's own and the oil as burnt cooking oil.[2][3] The Borġ in-Nadur site sometimes received more than 200 visitors,[3] and Caruana has a number of followers who circulate his messages through newsletters and the internet.[4]
In January 2016, the Catholic Church decreed that Caruana's messages were not divine in nature, and should not be promoted.[5][6][7] The curia were particularly concerned over Caruana's "monetary gain" from the reported apparations, and two cases where Caruana had told cancer patients that their illness has been cured, only for them to die weeks later.[8]
