This is my first thread!!!

Today, a small miracle happened to me.
Yesterday, i was at a beach with my family, we were going swimming. So, as i always do, i took off my holy medals. But these are no ordinary holy medals, these are my great grandmother’s holy medals that she brought from italy when she immigrated to the USA in the 1920s. They are extermely beautiful and of beautiful craftsmanship. They are very valauble, being that they are real gold and of a rare design that is not made any more, (i researched all of this) but the sentimental value is priceless. Anyway, i took them off my neck, and set them in the beachbag, eager to go swimming. And after a long day of that, i colapsed in bed. The next day, i looked into the beachbag, and my beloved medals WERE NOT THERE!! So i checked again, and again, panicking, i told my mom. After all, they were hers before they were mine, and she immediately had the whole family on search, tearing apart the house and the beach, while i searched the car. I tore through the car with no avail, and i broke down in tears. On my knees, i began to say the saint anthony prayer out loud. And the second i said amen, my cell phone started ringing. It was my mom. She found the medals in, of all places… A beer cozy.

So, in thanks to Saint Anthony, and in pure curiosity, i made this thread to share little miracles, particularly those of saint Anthony, but any little miracle or strange coincidence or old family story of that sort…
 
Awesome post! I enjoyed reading it! Thanks for sharing! 😃

I don’t know if this is a miracle or anything, but I do think it was God trying to tell me something.
One day I went out with my mom to go shopping. We saw my old computer teacher and we began chatting with her. She said something that struck me,“I’m so glad you kept your face natural and are not wearing makeup”. (Something like that, I can’t remember the exact wording. :p) Anyway, it struck me because it was that day that I was thinking about asking my dad if I could start to wear makeup. So I think that was God trying to tell me something there!
[And I still didn’t ask my dad!- Although I probably know what his response will be. :rolleyes: ]

I don’t know if this Scripture passage has anything to do with ‘small miracles’ but it’s a nice Scripture passage:
"And hospitality do not forget; for by this some, being not aware of it, have entertained angels. " - Hebrews 13:2

My small miracle also involves Saint-Anthony that happened a few years ago.

I’ve always wanted to purchase a statue of the saint, but I couldn’t find one that I liked. I went to the gift shop at Saint-Joseph’s Oratory and saw several Saint-Anthony statues, but they were too big and expensive. Some were 32" tall and cost more than 100$. I went back a few months later and saw that they had a Saint-Anthony statue in a smaller size. It was the only one in stock. It was about 15-16" tall and on sale:) The gift shop also sells a variety of saint medals and some of them contained third class relics. I asked an employee if they sold any Saint-Anthony medals with a third class relic. Unfortunately, she said that the store didn’t sell that type of medal. They had Saint-Anthony medals in stock, but without the relic. So, I decided to purchase a plain one. As I picked one up from the container of medals, I noticed that one of them seemed different from the others. I looked closely and noticed that it contained a third class relic. I thought it was just another medal that got mixed up with the Saint-Anthony medals. But when I looked at its front side, it was a medal of Saint-Anthony!

When I went to pay at the cash register, the employee was surprised that I found a Saint-Anthony medal with a third class relic. I didn’t even have to pay for it! She said that it didn’t belong to the store, since it wasn’t in stock, and there was no pricing for it.

Saint-Anthony, pray for us!
