Weeping Icon in Kenosha, Wisconsin

Kenosha, 2015

On Good Friday, April 10, 2015, the St. Nicholas icon wept in St. Nicholas Orthodox Church in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The icon wept from sometime after 9:00 am until around 6:00 pm. Because it was such a Holy Day, many people witnessed the weeping. However, the bishop in Chicago was not able to come immediately so the weeping was not canonically verified.
