'I tell you, not even among Christians have I found such faith!'


This woman is a Hindu by religion, and her husband faced a severe accident in 2019, resulting in fractures to his spinal bone, two shoulder bones, and four rib bones, requiring over 100 stitches on his back. Doctors recommended four emergency surgeries for his recovery.

With a heavy heart, she visited the Kreupasanam Shrine. Upon entering, she immediately felt a profound sense of solace. She prayed earnestly and performed all the rituals with devotion, sensing the Holy Mother's presence, enveloping her in love and care.

Upon taking the udambadi, she developed a strong desire for a Holy Bible and Rosary chain, despite not knowing how to pray or read. Her primary intention in coming to Kreupasanam was to seek healing for her husband, who was predicted to be bedridden due to 85% fractures in his spinal bone. She held steadfast faith that the Holy Virgin Mother would work a miraculous healing, and indeed, her husband was healed within the stipulated time, walking without the need for surgeries.

Subsequently, her non-believing aunt experienced a miraculous healing for severe nerve bleeding through her faithful prayers at Kreupasanam. Additionally, her cancer-affected grandmother, initially lacking faith in Christ, received divine touch and quick relief from pain following her prayers, astonishing everyone in the house.

While initially seeking material benefits, the woman is now eager to become a devoted disciple of Jesus Christ, 'through the Holy Virgin Mother to the Lord'. She expresses gratitude for being taught the Holy Bible and various theological facts directly by the Lord Himself. Now her sole prayer is to remain in the love of the Lord until her death.

This testimony prompts reflection on the Holy Verses in Luke 7:9, with a suggested modification to emphasize the remarkable faith of this woman: "When Lord Jesus heard these things, he marveled at this young woman, and turning to the crowd that assembled in the Shrine, said, 'I tell you, not even among Christians have I found such faith!'"
