After more than a decade of investigation, the Vatican has officially recognized the Eucharistic miracle that took place at Christ the King Church in Vilakkannoor, under the Archdiocese of Thalassery. The event, which reportedly revealed the face of Jesus on the consecrated Host during Mass, has now been affirmed as a legitimate Eucharistic miracle by the Holy See.
Archbishop Mar Joseph Pamplani of Thalassery conveyed the Vatican’s decision to the faithful during a Holy Mass held at the Vilakkannoor Church. He explained that the Holy See found the miracle to be one that deepens the faith of the Church in the real presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist and has thus approved its veneration in accordance with Catholic doctrine.
A significant event to mark this recognition will take place at Vilakkannoor on Saturday, May 31 at 2:30 p.m., when Archbishop Leopoldo Girelli, the Apostolic Nuncio and representative of Pope Leo XIV in India, will preside over the Eucharistic celebration and officially proclaim the miracle on behalf of the Vatican.
The miraculous occurrence dates back to November 15, 2013, when Fr. Thomas Patikkal was celebrating Holy Mass. During the consecration, the face of Jesus reportedly appeared on the Host. Following Church protocol, the Host was transferred to the Archdiocese for safekeeping and observation. Remarkably, the Host remained unchanged for over four years, after which it was returned to Vilakkannoor in September 2018 for public veneration, continuing until January 2020.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
