The milk grotto in Bethlehem is a place of pilgrimage for women who want to become a mother.
"Milk of the Virgin" is mined in the Milk Grotto in Bethlehem.
According to legend, in In this cave, the Holy Family Joseph and the Mother of God, after the Nativity of the Savior, for 40 days escaped from the soldiers of King Herod, who, believing the prediction of the coming of the Messiah, ordered the destruction of all babies in Bethlehem.
When the Mother of God was feeding the baby Jesus, drops of her milk splashed onto the floor and the walls of the cave immediately turned milky white.
Since then, the powder from the walls of the Milk Grotto is believed to have miraculous properties, it is believed that it increases the amount of milk in nursing mothers and helps with female infertility.
This powder is collected for the suffering.
Powder (particles of white stones from the grotto) with faith and prayer is used inside, diluted with holy water or milk.
The milk of the Virgin is one of the most important shrines, along with the belt of the Virgin, which helps spouses in conception.
Miracles really do happen, hundreds of letters of thanks and children's photographs, which were brought to the grotto by women who gave birth to long-awaited children, testify to this.
Women who want to have children come here from all over the world.
"Milk of the Virgin" is consecrated at the Tomb of the Virgin and in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher!
