Go here to read the rest. Miracles and Catholics ever walk hand in hand. Living from 1828 and dying on December 24, 1898 Saint Charbel Makhlou, the Miracle Monk, lived out his life in the glare of modern history. The miracles that began immediately after his death and have continued to this day would be derided as fantasies if told of a medieval saint. Miracles tell us that our God loves us and that this life is merely a portal to the wonders to come for those who believe in Christ.

Thanks for catching that CAG. Corrected.
Truly a remarkable Saint. Please pray to him if you or anyone you know is suffering from an illness. The miracles Don refers to include those of non-Christians (Muslims also) and non-Lebanese who have prayed for St Charbel intercession and been miraculously healed. Some testimonies below, but there are so many more if you do a Google search:
