Well I checked Snopes and there was nothing. So I googled, here is a different one, Kazakhstan: raised from the dead
http://www.jesus.org.uk/dawn/1997/dawn9741.html Why would you believe that Christ would not raise someone from the dead? He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. It is done for conversion of souls - where better than to raise someone from the dead than in the midst of an unbelieving Muslim people. And it occured before an icon of the Mother of God, to whom Muslims have great devotion.
Sayedna Raya use to tell us about St. Nicolas. The parents in town were very upset because their children were disappearing and could not be found. So they went to St. Nicholas for help. He went to the local butcher and asked if he had seen them, to which he replied no. The next day St. Nicolas came back and asked him again if he had seen them, again the reply was no. The third day upon going to the butcher and getting the same reply, St. Nicholas walked over to the pickle barrell. Opening it, he called to the children, come out of there, your parents are worried about you and miss you very much. Upon his words the children began climbing out of the barrel. He told them to hurry, do not delay because their mothers were so upset. Several were upset with St. Nicholas because they loved where they had been. You see the butcher had dismembered them and threw their bodies in the pickle barrel.
So why would you not believe that in a place where it is so needed, that Christ would not raise someone from the dead. His Word says, these and greater things will you do in my name... Don't let the spirit of this world tell you in cannot be done. IT HAS BEEN DONE, IT IS BEING DONE, AND IT WILL BE DONE - IN THE NAME OF JESUS! That should be the norm for our lives, we must be people of expectant faith, not people who cowar in the cornor someplace. We are called to be a people who walk by power of the Holy Spirit, not by power and might. Far greater is He who is within us, than he who is in the world.
