Saint Joseph of Cupertino levitates
Saint Joseph of Cupertino levitates to the Cross In the 17 years he spent at the Monastery of Grotella, Josephof Cupertino levitated over 70 times. On the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi, our flying priest, vested for Mass, levitated up to the pulpit, close to 6 feet from the ground and remained there suspended, in an attitude of prayer, his knees bent, his arms outstretched like his Savior before him on the Cross. On Holy Thursday evening, Saint Joseph of Cupertino was praying with the other friars of his Order before Our Lord Jesus, Who was reposing in the Tabernacle, His Holy Sepulcher, high above the main Altar. Overcome with the sad reality that His Lord would suffer the ongoing agony of Gethsemane that evening and that of His Passion on the Cross the next day, and feeling the terrible emptiness in the church without His Presence until Easter Sunday, Joseph of Cupertino could no longer contain his grief and levitated, soaring high up to the ciborium which contained His Lord.
