Healing Testimony of Brian K. Kravec
Mr. Brian K. Kravec is a cradle Catholic, husband, father, and grandfather. He is a writer, speaker, and the Co-Founder and Executive Director of Possibility Productions, a 501(c)(3) faith event evangelization apostolate in service of the Body of Christ. He is retired from a twenty-five-year career in law enforcement and currently resides with his wife in the Texas Hill Country.
Brian also writes for Queen of Peace Media, and until recently he had never heard of St. Charbel. He published an article, "Introduce Yourself to St. Charbel," which includes the testimony of his personal miracle. In the article's introduction, he describes the mystical way he came to know the saint:
"It was as if someone had clearly spoken the word in my ear the second before I awoke from sleep and opened my eyes. I didn't just audibly hear charbel. Charbel was instantly impressed on my heart. Until this particular morning at the beginning of 2026, I had no memory of ever hearing the word or consciously associating it with any person, place or thing. Imagine my astonishment when I typed charbel in the search engine... The pages and pages of hits on the world wide web seemed endless. Apparently – and I laugh when I think about this in hindsight – I must have been living under a rock and among a minority of the 1.4 billion Catholics in the world who didn't know St. Charbel."

Here is his account of his health condition and healing:
"I suffered pain in my left femur beginning in early 2025. By 2026, the pain progressed from tolerable to physically debilitating. It felt as though my bone would snap as I walked up the stairs. The appointment I scheduled with an orthopedic specialist was more than a month away.
God's timing is perfect, and my providential introduction to St. Charbel would soon bear miraculous fruit. I ordered and received the relic oil with just days to spare before seeing the specialist.
I anointed my femur with the oil for several days and prayed for St. Charbel to intercede for the healing of the root cause of the pain.
The healing caught me by surprise. To my astonishment, I was climbing a long flight of stairs at a local fitness facility when it occurred to me that I was completely pain free. I would explain to the orthopedic physician that the progressive pain I experienced for more than a year was totally absent by the day prior to my appointment. His examination and X-rays revealed a healthy femur."
