🙏💛 An old #miraculous #grotto considered for generations as a sacred place for devotion and #pilgrimage; taken as a petition for a special blessing or favor... This #HolySite is dedicated to #MarAbda; Patron #Saint of babies, fertility and motherhood; solicited to grant sterile women fertility, healthy pregnancy and safe delivery... As per an old tradition; people put images, clothes, rosaries and other stuff in the #Church as #vows and #promises; so that Saint Abda (The Guardian) listens to their #prayers if their kids were sick or if they were hoping to have children... (celebrated on August 31)
