A Texan family say they have found the image of Jesus in their frying pan.

Juan Pastrano, wife Mary-Lou and son Juan Jnr made the discovery when they went to wash up after a fry-up at their home in Prairie Lea.

Now they are keeping the pan in a sealed plastic bag while they decided what to do with it.

Two months ago a woman who discovered an image of the Virgin Mary in her toasted cheese sandwich sold it for £14,000 to casino company GoldenPalace.com. .

Jewellery maker Diana Duyser, 52, was shocked when the bidding went through the roof after she offered it for sale on eBay.

Now Mrs Duyser has suggested the Texas family follow her example and offer it for sale on eBay.

"I think they will be amazed how much it could sell for," she said.

JC certainly gets around.

Locally a while back we had a big commotion because Jesus was in a frig.

A few years ago in a town near ours (also in Texas) some kids spilled chocolate milk on the front steps. They didn't wash it off, and the next day, their mother noticed a chocolate stain in the concrete that looked like the Virgin Mary.

As word got out, people came from far and near to pray at the chocolate milk stain, from other states and even other countries (no kidding). The local grocer started stocking candles in addition to milk and bread and made a fortune. (Hmmmm...I wonder if they're also responsible for selling the chocolate milk.)

I just noticed that a crumpled piece of used tissue looks just like Michael Moore. I wonder if I could get anything for that?

There's a country western song in there somewhere - "I found Jesus in a frying pan."

They are in on it together.......the cheese sandwich was cooked in the frying pan.

"I found Jesus in a frying pan."

"..and he was eating my hushpuppies"

I don't want to start a Peter Sellers routine, but what's a frig?

People paid homage to him. How is it that eveytime a thing like this happens people want to buy it for ridiculous prices or make pilgramiges.
