Miracle on St. Sava's day: Little Filip Rikic (5), who is being treated for a tumor in France, came to church and touched everybody's hearts (VIDEO)
The boy couldn't speak since April, and he surprised everybody in the middle of the church
Little Filip Rikic (5), who is being treated in France this winter, after he was diagnosed with a malignant tumor on the brain, came on St. Sava's day to the Serbian church in Paris with his parents and everybody was speechless.
He recited one of the poems for children for Saint Sava, and it wouldn't be strange if it wasn't for a fact that this brave boy, after the brain surgery last year, completely forgot how to speak.
The little boy who has been learning the English language since the age of three, couldn't tell his parents if he was hungry or thirsty. At the same time he stopped swallowing and moving his arms, and his parents didn't move away from the hospital bed.
The boy's incredible strength and courage united the people of Serbia and they gathered money for his treatment in France. The boy slowly started recovering and he managed to recite the whole poem in the Serbian church yesterday:
These are the lines:
"The wish for St. Sava"
In the twentieth century
Saint Sava awaits us.
He is looking from above,
Where the brother is restless,
He prays to the God,
To give us harmony, love.
He calls for brothers dear,
To protect the Serbs
And to hold Orthodoxy.
To spread the Serbian language,
For brothers to reconciliation,
To celebrate the Serbian saints,
That is what St Sava wishes.
