Ask Mary Help of Christians within yourself

Very good days.

On the night of May 11 to 12, in 1978, at 12:30 p.m., a high-powered explosive blew out all the doors of his house, destroying furniture and shattering the windows. Several doors of the neighboring apartments also suffered the terrible explosion.

The entire family rested in the house: the couple, the two daughters and the three sons. In the midst of the smoke, the dust, the fear and stepping wherever they could, there was great joy at seeing everyone healthy. Strangely enough, in the kitchen the refrigerator had jumped, torn from its place, but the table there was still and without moving and on it, the little cage of the jumping canary and the blessed image of Mary Help of Christians of the home visit.

That Virgin, to whom Doña María del Carmen Lecea prayed before going to bed, when everyone was resting, was intact, with her Queen’s scepter, her divine Son in her arms and her Mother’s eyes.

Yes, the explosion also left its mark. A small medal from the upper edge of the chapel was broken, but the small cross on the edge was not broken.

Ask Mary Help of Christians within you to help you in what you need most..

Have a happy day.
