Thousands of childless couples from all over the world are traveling to Naples, Italy to visit a "miracle chair."

The crowds are visiting a 3-room home near Speranzella Street in Naples to ask Saint Mary Frances of the Five Wounds of Jesus for a miracle.

Her miracles are reported online, and believers said proof of the miracles are pasted all over the walls of the home. The walls are covered in birth announcements: pink for girls and blue for boys.

"The saint is waiting for you," Sister Elisa, a 65-year-old nun from the order that has guarded the shrine for two centuries, recently told hundreds of men and women gathered for morning prayer, according to a Reuters report.

The ordinary-looking armchair was recently videotaped under a worn blanket at the home.
