Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,
My name is Rose. I’m here today to share with you my experienced of JESUS’s LOVE and HIS miracle in my personal life.
In year 2011, Martin my beloved husband, was diagnosed with tumor in his brain. I felt extremely sad, and lost. I had even more reason to fear as, in year 2008, his medical report showed his cancer cells was active.
I feared losing Martin terribly. I was troubled and confused. I had nobody else to turn to except JESUS DIVINE MERCY. HE was the only HOPE whom I trusted, hence I surrendered everything to HIM. I believe that HE will lead me and guide me to find the best surgeon for Martin.
It was on Father’s Day, the 19th June 2011, when we were scheduled to meet our third surgeon for a third opinion for Martin. I was unable to focus in Mass that Sunday as I had a multitude of worries that haunted my mind.
In spite of that, I did experience the true presence of JESUS during the consecration. The moment when Fr. Bernard Paul lifted up the host, I saw JESUS’ face on the host itself. Not believing my eyes, I looked again carefully and true enough, it was JESUS’ face very clearly imprinted in the host.
Wow….I thought to myself. Seeing JESUS’ face, I felt HIS divine joy and a peace gushed all over me. I felt the assurance of HIS appearance that I’m never alone for HE is always right beside me. In that instant, my fears vanished. It was the best moment of my life that I will never erase from my memory. It is still very fresh and the vision of Christ is lives vividly, etched in my mind.
On the 3rd July 2011, (2 days before Martin’s admission for the surgery), Martin was on duty as an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion. He recalled the faith of the bleeding woman from Matthew 9:18, whom, after touching JESUS’ cloak was healed of her sickness. Likewise, as Martin was returning the ciborium, he touched the corporal in the ciborium and just asked for JESUS’ healing.
Magdalena Chin, my childhood friend and now our neighbor and BEC member, revealed to us that she felt touched and wept uncontrollably the very exact moment Martin was returning the ciborium into the tabernacle that Sunday. It was 3 weeks later after Martin’s surgery then, when Magdalena shared this with us without any prior knowledge of Martin’s action. She felt assured that Martin was already healed that very instant.
Yes, indeed Martin was healed with clean medical report confirmed a benign tumor. He is now as ‘healthy as a horse’ ! Praise the LORD, AMEN !!
Furthermore, I would like to share another two incidents that I had experienced and witnessed myself.
On one Sunday morning, I felt JESUS’ presence during the consecration in mass again. Fr. Gerard Theraviam, a priest well-known known for his deep voice and dark complexion, was celebrating mass that Sunday. The moment he uttered the Eucharistic Prayer, I saw Fr.GT glowing. He was dazzling white and sparkling bright. I quickly blinked, thinking it was my eyes playing tricks on me but, when I looked again, the light remained and indeed, Fr. GT was shining and I knew JESUS was present during the consecration
Having seen this, I felt an even stronger and closer connection to JESUS. I felt that JESUS was so near and real. It comforted me to know that JESUS is present and not some distant ‘GOD’ that we pray for. For me, there is no room for doubt now, only faith. I am affirmed that HE is here, amongst us and that HE listens to us. I felt an even deeper desire to praise and glorify HIM. AMEN
Similarly, the other time I felt JESUS’ presence during the Eucharistic celebration when I was on duty as Extraordinary Minister. After communion, I was returning the ciborium into the tabernacle when I felt, to my surprise, the weight of the ciborium was as heavy as a baby !!
Again, it removes all doubt I had about the presence of JESUS in my life.
AMEN
Occasion where healing / miracle took place
At Healing Mass on 30 AUG 2014 at 10.00 a.m.
This morning, a loving couple fetched my wife Suzanne, daughter Mary and me for the Healing Mass at the CDM as we, like most people, needed healing. Immediately after Fr. Martin anointed Suzanne and me, we felt a great emotional feeling which was difficult to describe. And when Fr. Martin handed Suzanne the gift of the Divine Mercy in a frame, she just burst out in tears feeling that her prayers would be answered by the Lord! Praise and thank the merciful Lord!

I would like to share my experience of the benefit of attending BEC. I am from BEC St. Mark 1.
In June 2014, I had a rude shock when my 12 year old daughter went into depression, she was bullied in school and isolated by her teachers, and she felt as if no one loves her. She was afraid of being herself in crowd. She didn’t want to mix with anyone. She lost her self-esteem. She would cling to us, parents and the more I try to help her, the more depressed I became and slowly, I started to feel helpless. While at a BEC meet, reflection paper meet. I shared the problem at hand. The feedback I received from all those who attended the meet, was overwhelming. I felt as though I was surrounded by my family members to comfort us, the whole family.
The true meaning of BEC was revealed during that moment. The BEC leader’s wife sacrificed a souvenir (a rosary) for my daughter so that she could have something to cling onto in school in case she needs assurance of divine intervention. All the love showered, during that period of time made my daughter respond “Mommy I don’t care if my friends and teachers don’t like me or don’t want me because I have such a big family who cares and love me so much”. And since, she is stronger and went through her UPSR with ease and was able to mingle in church and serve as Altar Server.
This is the benefit of BEC – Family! These people in BEC are the nearest family in times of need. Join your BEC, make yourself present and experience the love as you share your love for people.
An hour after he left our house to lecture at the hospital where he worked, I learnt that my husband, Segaran had suffered a stroke. Feelingstrangely detached, I went over to the image of the Divine Mercy and said, “Jesus, I trust in you” and to Mother Mary, it was simply to say, “Mother, you know what to do”.
It was a day after our 35th wedding anniversary on the 5th of October 2014. I messaged two wonderful friends who very quickly alerted our Parish priest, Father Martin, BECs and other church ministries to pray for him. By the time my sister and I reached Adventist Hospital, there was a reassuring avalanche of prayer messages.
AnMRI scan confirmed an infarct or clot in the brain which had affected Segaran’s speech. He could not form words,breaking down in frustration despite assurances that many people were praying for him.
Then within 30 minutes of our arrival at the Emergency Room, the situation began to change dramatically….without treatment.
My sister, Jesinta and I watched as 90% of Segaran’s speech returned. The Cardiologist cancelled the bed booked in ICU. To test his reflexes, the Neurologist ordered oral medicinewhich he swallowed without difficulty.The stroke test score was a healthy 2 over 40. (Higher score being unhealthy)
Surprisingly Segaran was discharged on the 3rd day and returned to work after 2 weeks. Relatives, colleagues and friends who were planning to visit were equally amazed at his speedy recovery.
The following is Segaran’s own words:
Well, I must say it was myscariest moment and I thought it was the end of me but with God’s grace I managed to recover fast. I became so emotional and I cried despite being a strong person… it is hard to explain.
His recovery was due to the power of prayers and the solidarity of church and BECs which came together in our hour of need. We are grateful for all their love and support. Two weeks after Segaran’s discharge, we came as a family to church to offer thanksgiving to the Divine Mercy. On Sunday, 9th November 2014, we travelled to Sungai Batu to thank Our Lady of Immaculate Conception for her powerful intercession.
Segaran& Elizabeth
