Jesus found at church

A man found Jesus — when he spotted what looks like Christ’s face on a church wall.

Alan Stocks, 40, noticed the likeness while taking a break between customers outside his barber's shop.

The image has a beard like Jesus and a crown of thorns made from moss growing on the stone.

The wall runs down one side of Greenock Westburn Church in the Inverclyde town. A delighted Alan said: “I noticed the face on the wall as soon as I saw it — it’s incredible. It definitely looks like Jesus.”

Greenock Westburn’s minister Rev Douglas Hamilton is yet to see the image. But he said last night: “If it brings a smile to people’s faces I’m happy with it.

“Though I’m not expecting flocks of pilgrims down to see it.”
