St. Martin of Tours Parish in the Bronx has a healing prayer grotto dedicated to Our Lady Undoer of Knots.

It is a Catholic devotion that has become popular in recent years, particularly due to the support of Pope Francis who has recommended it several times during this pontificate.

The parish, in collaboration with the Archdiocese’s Office for Family Life, hosted an evening of hope and healing on October 5th to underline how families can benefit from this devotion.

The concert for the poor began as the initiative of Pope Francis in 2015, although he did not attend any of the performances.
