The first time I prayed to Father Truong Buu Diep it was on behalf of my daughter. My daughter had frequent headaches. She went to the hospital and was told that she had a tumor in her head. I took her to the altar of Father Diep and prayed to him. I said: “Dear Father, my daughter suffers from a tumor in her head, please heal her so that she would be healthy again.”
Before that, in 2008 we went to Vietnam, we had visited Tac Say and was given some water, we brought the water back for my daughter to drink, I also pour it over her head. The doctor prescribed that my daughter medicate with a shot once every six months. She was administered one shot be she refused to continue with that treatment. From then on, her headaches became more frequent. I thought that only Father Diep could help her.
Her younger sister took the MCAT Test, her older sister applied to a Master’s program but had to stay on a waiting list for a long time. I prayed: “If Father Diep loves us, please bless us so that my daughter taking the MCAT would pass with a high score and for her to have the peace of mind when she takes the exam. As for the other daughter, we prayed that she would be accepted to the Master’s program. I promised to come to Father Diep’s
Foundation and give thanks and bear witness to him.” That was April 2016.
When I prayed to Father Diep, I asked that he give me a sign so that I would be at peace. Normally, when I prayed, I always offer fresh flowers for Father Diep. That day, I offered Father Diep some sunflowers, suddenly I saw the sunflower move. I thought to myself: “Dear Father, I feel as if you are giving me a sign and that you want me to know that my prayers have been answered.” As soon as I had these thoughts, I felt a chill from my head down to my shoulders, it was amazing. Father Diep also gave me another sign, as if miraculously, the flowers fell down right at Father Diep’s picture. I thought to myself: “Dear Father, I know that you have accepted
my prayers.”
After Father Diep gave me those signs, a few days later, my daughter Lisa got news that she passed her exam while my other daughter Trang was accepted to the Master’s program that she applied for. Father Diep is indeed miraculous. He has blessed both my daughters and I was encouraged, my faith grew stronger where it was very weak before.
When I first started praying to Father Diep, we did not know that there was an office in California where Father Diep’s Foundation resided. One day, after praying, Iopened up my iPad and searched Miracles of Father Diep, and found a link to the Truong Buu Diep Foundation. We had promised with Father Diep that when we received his blessings that we would offer him our sincere gratefulness, so this time I flew from Florida (to California) to give thanks to Father Diep and to be his witness. I learned on the Internet about Father Diep’s history. I was moved when I discovered how he selflessly gave up his own life to protect 70 of his flock. Even in death, he was pious, he expressions peaceful, his hands clasped in prayer, happy to serve God and to serve humanity. That is how I came to appreciate and respect Father Diep as a Martyr and a Saint.
When Father Diep caused the flower to fall down, my children believed that Father Diep can perform miracles. After that, my children were better behaved and more willing to pray the rosary with our family and to have faith in Father Diep. On this trip, my children know that they were blessed by Father Diep and they wanted to go with us to meet him. This is true happiness for my family. Today’s youth are not always so pious. More than that, my children even reminds us to pray the rosary every night. Before, they did not have such motivation.
I know of many people who were blessed by Father Diep. I am one of them. I know that I have to be patient and diligent when I pray to him, when I run to him. He will always bless us although not right away some times. Sooner or later. Here now, my family give thanks to Father Frances Truong Buu Diep, and also thank our fellow believers who praise Father Diep’s name and give glory to God.
Daily Blessing
