Photo de l'apparition de la Vierge Marie au-dessus de l'église copte de Zeitoun, au Caire

D'avril 1968 au début de 1971, des milliers de personnes se rassemblaient chaque soir devant l'église copte de Zeitoun (banlieue du Caire, en Égypte, près du lieu où la Sainte Famille aurait séjourné après sa fuite en Égypte durant la persécution d'Hérode) pour assister aux apparitions de la Vierge Marie. Contrairement aux autres apparitions de Marie, à Fatima ou à Lourdes par exemple, tous les fidèles, sans distinction de race ni de religion, pouvaient la voir.

Eyewitnesses said her appearances over the church, which lasted anywhere from a few minutes to several hours, were heralded by flashing lights and the coming of large dovelike birds. On occasion, Jesus and Joseph accompanied the Blessed Mother. Published photographs taken during the apparitions show the figure of the Mother of Christ next to the dome of the church with a luminous bird hovering over her head.

During the Zeitoun apparitions, hundreds said they were spontaneously healed, and reports of cures and miracles continued even after the apparitions had ceased.

-From April 1968 to early 1971 throngs of thousands gathered nightly outside the Coptic church in '''Zeitoun''' (a suburb of Cairo, Egypt, near where the Holy Family is said to have stayed after their flight to Egypt during Herod’s persecution) to witness the appearances of the [[Blessed Mother]]. Unlike Mary’s other apparitions, at [[Fátima]] or [[Lourdes]] for instance, everyone in the crowds, of any race and religion, was able to see her.
