Tree falls, narrowly misses statue of Virgin Mary. It's a MIRACLE!! [View all]

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (KRIS/CNN) - After a large tree fell during Saturday night’s storm in Texas, the only thing it didn't knock over was a Virgin Mary statue.

The statue is still standing upright, touching the fallen tree.

“I think, I would call it a miracle because I am catholic and I have a lot of faith and I think the good lord was taking care of us and I think she had a lot to do with the tree not falling towards the house,” said Lily Amador, homeowner.

Amador said there's already been people stopping by to see for themselves.

She's now working on getting the tree removed and her fence repaired.
