Miracles of St. Prohor of Pčinja testified by abbot Archimandrite Methodije

The post recounts several miracles attributed to St. Prohor of Pčinja as testified by Archimandrite Methodije Marković, abbot of the monastery where the saint's relics rest. For centuries the faithful have gathered at the shrine seeking comfort, help, and the saint's intercession. The monastery preserves an archive of written testimonies from monastics and believers about healings, answered prayers, and miraculous events.

One family traveling to Greece stopped at the monastery with their five-year-old daughter who had never spoken. After venerating the relics, praying, and anointing her with holy myrrh, the girl said "mama" a few kilometers from the monastery. The family returned to the shrine, and in Greece the girl began to speak fully; her parents now visit on the feast of St. Prohor.

Another testimony concerns a girl who had been in a coma since the late 1980s or early 1990s. Her father dreamed of St. Prohor calling him to bring the child to the shrine. While en route to the monastery, the girl opened her eyes and awoke. A third testimony, recorded on June 29, 2016, describes a girl with impaired vision from early childhood who regained sight after prayer at the monastery.

The post also describes abundant myrrh flowing from a crack in the wall containing the relics. According to the testimony, the myrrh began flowing on the eve of the festal vigil, continued through the night and on the feast day itself, so that priests collected it from the church floor. Over a thousand faithful gathered for the liturgical celebration witnessed this event.

The abbot emphasizes that the shrine is a place of prayer, repentance, and hope, and that saints work not by their own power but by God's grace acting through them.
