“O LORD MY GOD, I CRIED TO YOU FOR HELP, AND YOU HAVE HEALED ME” (PS 30:2).
In July 2023, my retreat at DRC was with a struggle. The pain Lin my knees was so intense, even kneeling for five minutes felt impossible. Each moment was a test of endurance, and I carried that burden with me. When I once again returned for a retreat, on 1 July 2025-during the Divine Mercy Adoration, something began to shift. As I prayed, I felt a gentle easing of the pain, like grace quietly entering the room. Then came the Physical Healing Adoration, and in that sacred space, the miraculous unfolded: the pain vanished completely. I knelt freely, joyfully, without a trace of discomfort. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for your healing touch. I praise you with all my heart. “BUT FOR YOU WHO FEAR MY NAME, THE SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS SHALL RISE WITH HEALING IN ITS WINGS. YOU SHALL GO OUT LEAPING LIKE CALVES FROM THE STALL” (MAL 4:2).

“I WILL BE GRACIOUS TO WHOM I WILL BE GRACIOUS, AND WILL SHOW MERCY ON WHOM I WILL SHOW MERCY” (EXD 33:19).
F For nearly three months, I walked through the valley of affliction, burdened by relentless back pain that shadowed every step and stifled my daily life. My strength was diminished, and my spirit weary. Yet I held onto the hope in God’s healing power. Then came the moment of Divine encounter-during the Physical Healing Adoration, the presence of the Lord enveloped me. I was touched by Jesus, the Living God. Instantly, the pain vanished. I stood, I bent, I moved unhindered and free. Thank you, Jesus. Praise you, Jesus.my Hope, my Deliverer. “FOR YOU, O LORD, ARE GOOD AND FORGIVING, ABOUNDING IN STEADFAST LOVE TO ALL WHO CALL UPON YOU” (PS 86:5).

“THE LORD APPEARED TO HIM FROM FAR AWAY. I HAVE LOVED YOU WITH AN EVERLASTING LOVE; THEREFORE I HAVE CONTINUED MY FAITHFULNESS TO YOU” (JER 31:3).
In 2021, I walked through the valley of affliction- Urinary pain Letched its mark upon my days, even after the surgeon’s hand and the medicine’s promise, discomfort lingered like a shadow that refused to fade. Yet in July 2025 at DRC, in the sacred moments of the Physical Healing Adoration, as prayers rose like incense, my suffering began to lift. It was not thunder or a blinding light- It was peace blooming quietly in the depths of my soul. I knew it was not chance. It was Jesus gentle, deliberate, and real. In that moment, healing was more than physical relief it was the embrace of a Saviour whose touch restores. Now I walk in light, no longer burdened by the ache. Not just healed but held. “GIVE THANKS TO THE GOD OF HEAVEN, FOR HIS STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES FOREVER” (PS136:26).

“HE SENT OUT HIS WORD AND HEALED THEM; HE RESCUED THEM FROM THE GRAVE” (PS 107:20).
Flike waves, retreating only to return again. Even on the moming before the Healing Adoration, the pain was present, relentless and familiar. Yet in that sacred moment, as the priest spoke prophetically, his words pierced through the fog of suffering: “There is a person here who has continuous headaches, even today-Jesus is healing you.” And I knew it that was me. I reached out from within me with faith exclaiming: “If I just believe, I shall be healed.” I claimed that word-not merely with hope but with conviction. From that moment onward, the pain vanished, and with it came a peace that surpasses understanding (Phil 4:7). What once was a recurring shadow became a testimony of light. The healing was not just physical it was holy, intimate, and real. Jesus had seen me, spoke to me, and restored me. “BY HIS STRIPES, WE ARE HEALED” (IS 53:5).

Tam a seventy two-year-old Chinese from Singapore, and this retreat at DRC marks the first milestone in a long-awaited journey of renewal. I arrived burdened by disbelief and bound by a decades-long struggle with gambling a shadow that followed me with quiet torment. My heart was heavy with habits that whispered shame, and my soul ached under their weight. Yet, it was at DRC-within the quiet corners of this sacred space that the Word of God, sharper than any two-edged sword (Heb 4:12), pierced through my hardened heart. The preaching stirred something long dormant, shaking the dust off my spirit. Like the blind man whose eyes Jesus touched, I began to see not with human eyes, but with faith renewed. I felt the old self crumbling and the grip of addiction loosening. The weight of my past being lifted, one breath of grace at a time. I now choose to surrender all of me to Jesus. No turning back. The chains of gambling, shame and every other vice are broken in His name. Thank You, Jesus, for reaching into the depths of my brokenness and renewing my life. Praise You, Jesus, for setting me free. My soul sings now not of sorrow, but of deliverance. “THEREFORE, IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW CREATION. THE OLD HAS PASSED AWAY: BEHOLD, THE NEW HAS COME” (II COR 5:17).
JOHANNA PEREIRA, MANGALORE “CAST ALL YOUR ANXIETIES ON HIM, BECAUSE HE CARES FOR YOU” (I PET 5:7).
Thad been suffering from recurring headache for a long time. At the Physical Healing Adoration in Divine Retreat Centre in July 2025 I began to experience, the headache like an unwelcome old friend-familiar, persistent, impossible to shake. When the priest’s words floated over the congregation “There is someone here with continuous headaches, even today Jesus is healing you”-my heart skipped. It was as if he had spoken directly into my struggle, naming the exact ache I carried for so long. In that instant, faith unclenched the tension within me. I claimed the promise, and just like that, the pain evaporated. No lingering pulse, no dull ache only a clear, peaceful silence where my headache once lived. From that moment, I have been completely free from this headache. I am thankful and extremely grateful to God. “THIS IS MY COMFORT IN MY AFFLICTION, THAT YOUR PROMISE GIVES ME LIFE” (PS 119:50).
