There are several accounts of miraculous healings and supernatural events associated with the relics of St. Stephen, who is believed to have been the first Christian martyr. One miracle involves a woman being restored of her sight after her eyes were touched with a flower that had been laid on the saint’s relics. Other miraculous healings include those of two sisters who were cured of epilepsy after being in contact with his relics. There are also several accounts of deceased individuals, including a priest, a nun, and a young boy who had been hit and killed by a carriage, who were brought back to life after their bodies came into contact with the relics.
