Himala ng mga Birhen is an exhibit at the Filipiniana section that will feature a popular aspect of Filipino spirituality. The exhibit will honor three valiant women: the Virgin of La Naval, Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo and Sr. Mary Christine Tan. It will briefly trace the beginnings of our adoration for the Nuestra Señora del Rosario de la Naval through a gallery of photos of statues, paintings, and other artworks; and a display of rosaries, novenas, and stampitas. Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo was the founder of the first congregation for Filipino women, the Religious of the Virgin Mary. Sr. Mary Christine Tan of the Religious of the Good Shepherd was a human rights advocate, and member of the 1986 Constitutional Commission.
