The Legend of the
BLEEDING HEART DOVE
When an arrogant soldier of
Pontius Pilate plunged his
spear into the side of Christ
as He hung helpless on the
Cross, a cruel wound was ex-
posed. Out of the Heavens
flew a dove, and descending
to the cross, the bird gently
brushed-perhaps accident-
ally, perhaps designedly-
against the wound made by
the spear. The sacred blood
of the Savior stained a few
feathers on the dove's breast,
and from that day to this,
every dove of this species
carries a few blood-red feath-
ers on its breast-a memento
of that incident almost two
thousand years ago.
