Stephen Turoff

Blessing of the Sacred cave near the castle Socerb and Stephen’s commentary of events

Stephen Turoff has been claiming for two years that he had lived one of his past lives on the territory of Slovenija as a hermit in an underground cave shaped as a little church or sanctuary .

After Christmas 2005 information about the only underground church in Slovenia called Sacred cave started coming to us. The entrance into the Karst cave which really looks like a small church or sanctuary is in the little valley.Following 45 stone steps you reach the bottom of the first hall.

Till 1953 there was an altar dedicated to Saint Socerb. Behind the altar there is water in a shallow karst basin. They have always claimed this water to be healing.

Our famous historian Valvasor first mentions it in his scriptures. Above the water which the young saint is supposed to have drunk is a bed shaped from stalagmites and stalactites. Saint Socerb slept in it.

To the left you can see naturally formed pulpit from the stones.

The life of Saint Socerb

He was born in Trieste to very pious parents Evlogij and Klemencia who raised him in Christian faith since his early childhood. At the early age of twelve the boy left his father’s house. He went to live in that cave and spent one year and nine months in the greatest renunciation and pious prayer. When he heard the voice telling him to leave the place which he loved so much and to go home, he did so.

He saw a huge snake on the path. He only breathed upon it, made the sign of Cross and the snake died. His power increased when young Socerb cast the devils from the man possessed by the evil spirit. The word of mouth says that the inhabitants of Trieste are under special protection because of his intercession.

After the death of his father he started to spread the word of God. After healing the son of the noble lady Fulgencia who was just about to die because of the fiver, both mother and son asked him to be baptized. By uttering the name of Jesus he miraculously healed mason Didim who fell from a high scaffold.

All those “miraculous” healings where obviously too much for the then deputy of the Roman emperor Numerian Junil who had young Socerb captured and imprisoned.
He publicly expressed his faith and remained faithful to it till his last breath.They tortured him cruelly before they beheaded him. First they whipped him than they put him on the rack. They hooked flash from his body, poured boiling oil into the wounds and finally beheaded him.

All this happened on the 24th May 284.

The remains of his body now rest in the church of St. Just in Trieste.

There is also an altar dedicated to him in the same church.

Every year there is a mass in his memory on May 24th There is a road named after him in Trieste – Via San Servolo.

The inhabitants of Trieste, Buie and Socerb worship him as their special patron.

Many attrocities happened in the cave during the II World War.

Stephen Turoff is a direct manifestation of Saint Socerb. The qualities and magnetism of the young saint are being more and more expressed through him.

With each arrival to Slovenija more powerfull Light manifests around and through him which is evident from the photos made by very simple cameras.

( look at the photos from the healing circles nad seminars).

He is coming to Slovenija to fulfill the promiss he gave 1722 years ago.

After the Blessing: Stephen’s commentary of events

The reason of my visit of the Sacred cave was a promise I gave in 284 A. D. to come back. Now I was called from my Heavenly Kingdom to lead people from the darkness of the cave into the Light of God.

Last year I had a vision.I was standing in front of the Gates of Hell and there was a mighty battle going on. I reached my hand up to God and a fiery cross come down into my hand. The battle raged in front of me. I could see the Evil of this fighting overflowing on to the earth.  The voice of God sounded in my heart: »You must go forth! You must follow this evil and destroy it!« Soon after this God led me to the Sacred cave near the castle of Socerb in Slovenia (on the border between Italy and Slovenia above Trieste and Koper).   Lord told me to go in the cave where I spent a year and 9 months of one of my previous lives.

I spent most of the time talking to the beloved, until I was released from my earthly life on May 24th 284 A. D. I knew the mission, which was fulfilled on May 3rd 2006 A. D. at 3 p.m., was of great importance.The fight between Good and Evil took place as I entered the cave. The Devil took hold of my body as the photo shows but the power of the Lord was on my side.  I cast the devil with his dominions from me and from the cave. When we destroyed the Evil, the Cross of light manifested in the darkness with the face of the beloved Son of Man.

Jesus is very clearly seen manifesting his image next to me in the darkness of the cave. This is not only to enlighten the darkness of the cave but to light the hearts of Men. There was to be a new birth in the cave, as promised by the Lord.

The pictures show the Christ child in my arms, as the cave is blessed anew. This photos show my coming back from the gates of Hell into my body after the battle, where the souls of Men have been set free from the prison tomb of their fate. The Devil had hold of these souls and now, by the grace of God, they are free.

the Sacred cave near the castle Socerb is open to visitors every Sunday at 14.00.
