I remember a recent Gospel reading where a woman just touched the garments that Jesus wore and was cured.

Then she cut a small piece off to keep, as a magic relic. For generations, it healed everyone in her family! Later after her death, her family willed it to their church to keep on display...
Wait. Scratch that. Not in the Scriptures.
Christ said her faith made her whole - not touching his garment.
The story is in Luke and Mark, following is from Luke 45-48 — 45 And Jesus said, “Who is the one who touched Me?” And while they were all denying it, Peter said, “Master, the people are crowding and pressing in on You.” 46 But Jesus said, “Someone did touch Me, for I was aware that power had gone out of Me.” 47 When the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling and fell down before Him, and declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed. 48 And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace.
