TESTIMONY 12

TESTIMONY 12

Name: Ms. Mariyamma 
Surname: Kalapala 
Date of Birth: 75 years old 
Profession / Occupation: Coolie (daily labour) 
Address: Thelaprolu Village and Post Unguturu Mandal, Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh State 
Relationship: Direct Witness. She met Brother Joseph Thamby when he visited Thelaprolu. 

I was 7 years old when Thamby came to Thelaprolu village. He was going to every street of the village and inviting children for prayer. I also joined other children and went to the Church. We were praying the Rosary inside the Church and Brother Joseph Thamby sat at the door of the Church and praying the Rosary. After the prayers, I used to play with him for little time. 

During the Lenten season, Joseph Thamby used to kneel down and pray while the Way of the Cross. He used to get stigmata now and then. When Devarapalli Krupavathi tried to wipe the wounds, Joseph Thamby used to say no to that. 

One day, near the Church at Thelaprolu, a thorn pierced into his leg and had swelling on the leg. Immediately, he was taken to Avutapally by a bullock cot. 

On first Sunday of every month, I used to accompany Devarapalli Krupavathi, Kathi Renamma and Santhoshamma to Avutapally to see Brother Joseph Thamby. He used to feed us and give fruits. He used to keep his hands on our heads and bless us. 

After his death, I led 8 women who were having no children to the tomb of Brother Joseph Thamby for 9 weeks and prayed there. All of them had children through the intercessory prayers of Brother Joseph Thamby. 

There was a problem in the family of my daughter Moksha Bhagyam. I prayed for four months through the intercessory prayers of Brother Joseph Thamby. The family is united now.
