One day a girl came to the elder and told him that they had constant quarrels and scandals in the house, and his brother ran away from home.
“The old man immediately went to our house. We went in and saw that my brother was already home.
— Some force made me come back, the brother said.
Father Gabriel approached the icons and began to pray. I saw the icon of the Mother of God illuminated with radiant light, illuminating the face of the elder. His prayer was so strong that all impurity was removed from our family. Since then, peace and tranquility have reigned in our family, the girl said.
