US EditionPeru hopes local miracle gets recognition under new pope
- Residents of Eten, a modest town in Peru, are hopeful that Pope Leo XIV will formally acknowledge a 17th-century Eucharistic miracle involving depictions of the infant Jesus.
- This hope comes after Pope Leo XIV's recent election, who previously served from 2015 to 2023 as the spiritual leader overseeing the Chiclayo region near Eten, where he initiated formal steps in 2019 to recognize the longstanding local Eucharistic miracle.
- The miracle reportedly occurred in 1649 during a eucharist, when an apparition of Jesus and three hearts appeared, inspiring continuous local devotion and pilgrimages.
- Eduardo Zarpan, a local guide, explained that numerous individuals regularly come forward sharing accounts of miraculous events such as recovery from illnesses and overcoming infertility, while experts emphasize that officially recognizing these miracles requires a lengthy investigative process.
- Official recognition could bring faith acknowledgment, tourism, and economic benefits to Eten, and locals and leaders alike eagerly anticipate a papal visit and shrine development.
