"At a meeting in his home church, Jesus healed him! Back at the hospital, they found and verified a complete healing. The pain had disappeared from his shoulder and knee, and the power and the mobility was returned to normal. Since that healing on March 3, 2011, Eyoun has not had the slightest neurological symptoms." -Dr. Jenis av Rana

(Sofia, Bulgaria)—A Christian doctor from the remote Faroe Islands, situated between Norway and Iceland with a population of around 48,000, told a group of Christian doctors gathered in Sofia, Bulgaria, how Eyðun Jacobsen, a famous local musician and worship leader was "miraculously healed."

Dr. Jenis av Rana, a physician based in Tórshavn, the capital of the tiny country, shared the dramatic story under the title of "Hemiplegia," on the first day of a unique medical conference attended in Sofia, Bulgaria, by 240 delegates from 38 countries.

Dr. Rana began his case study by saying said that despite it being such a small country, with about 49,000 residents, they were seeing many miracles in the Faroe Islands, an archipelago and autonomous country within the Kingdom of Denmark, situated between the Norwegian Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean.

Eyoun Jacobsen, the healed musician, he said, is a "worship leader," and according to Dr. Rana, "He is a brilliant singer and guitar player, writing worship songs and making his own melodies. He was born on May 14th 1955, and works in the salmon industry.

"One day, in November 2010, while at work, Eyoun suddenly, like a flash, felt a severe headache and he explained that he felt as it his head had 'burst.' He was transported to the main hospital in Tórshavn—where the neurological conclusion was that Eyoun had got a cerebral infarction in his right hemisphere.

"He had almost no strength in his left hand and they had to catch him or he would fall when trying to walk."

As his fellow medical professionals listened intently, Dr. Rana went onto say, "After four months at the hospital, with intensive training, the physiotherapist concluded that there was no progress and he talked to him and his family about social benefits. There was still reduced strength in the left upper limb, generally reduced strength in the left lower limb and tendency to atrophy.

"But then, at a meeting in his home church, Jesus healed him! That evening Eyðun was disappointed and left the meeting, but his youngest daughter begged him to come back. There, two young men prayed for him and He was totally healed! Eyoun said, 'I felt a warm flow that started in my head and spread through my left arm and into the right leg. Suddenly I could clench my left hand and use my left leg as well as before I got ill.'" (Photo via ANS)

To great applause, the doctor concluded by saying, "Back at the hospital, they found and verified a complete healing. The pain had disappeared from his shoulder and knee, and the power and the mobility was returned to normal. Since that healing on March 3, 2011, Eyoun has not had the slightest neurological symptoms."

The 11th Annual World Christian Doctors Network (WCDN) Conference, where the doctor spoke, is taking place in Sofia, Bulgaria, May 9-10, 2014, where Christian doctors and medical professionals, are meeting at the Sheraton Sofia Balkan Hotel to "Glorify the Great Physician" and discuss "Medicine, Science and Spirituality."

Each of these medical professional attendees believes that "spiritual healing" is an answer to sickness in the 21st Century. They say that medicine alone cannot deal with some of today's worst illnesses. But they also believe that miracles should be "documented" and various respected doctors will present actual case studies of miracles with the medical evidence to back them up.

After the audience has heard the presentation, which is also projected onto a large screen in the hotel's ballroom, they are able to ask them questions about each "miracle."

A spokesperson for the event, said, "This WCDN Conference gives us a better understanding of the special time we are now living in—a time of great scientific breakthroughs, but less compassion and love, time of deeper darkness and inhumanity but also, of the expectation for the glorious coming of our Lord.

"The conference will encourage medical persons to be partners of the Lord in our work (professional and spiritual) and our responsibility to be His witnesses."

The spokesperson added, "We believe that Sofia can be a good host of the event with its beautiful antique and modern architecture, warm hospital people and good facilities, tasty food, green nature, touristic attractions. It has capacity to assure professional collaborative atmosphere and fruitful contacts for specialists in different fields of the medical science and practice. In the past, the city was favorite residence of several Roman rulers, as it was known for its warm natural springs."

Joining with the many doctors are many representatives from the local Christian community, mainly evangelicals and charismatics, but also some Bulgarian Orthodox priests and representatives, who enjoyed the worship music that began the conference from "New Generation," various welcome messages, and lots of fellowship.

According to Wikipedia, Bulgaria has been traditionally a Christian state since the adoption of Christianity as the state religion in 865, and therefore the dominant confession is Eastern Orthodoxy of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. During the Ottoman rule of the Balkans Islam established itself in the territories of Bulgaria, Roman Catholicism has roots in the country since the Middle Ages, and Protestantism arrived in the 19th century.

In fact, the capital Sofia is known for its so-called Triangle of Religious Tolerance: the St. Nedelya Church, Banya Bashi Mosque and Sofia Synagogue are located within meters of each other in the very center of the city.

According to a story in Christian Century by Victor Kostov, Bulgaria is a "small country with a long history." Like other Balkan countries, it has gone through turmoil, slavery, exaltation, and defeat. Though Bulgaria is the quietest and most obscure nation on the troubled Balkan Peninsula, its people have to wrestle with the usual social evils that plague former communist-bloc countries: slow reforms, economic difficulties and moral confusion. And Bulgaria's evangelical community of 100,000 people has its unique problems and anxieties."

But this exciting conference has certainly brought much joy to many of them.
