When Heaven Answers : Stories of Hope and Healing

Irish people share their experiences of faith, hope and healing: When John Walsh from Tallaght arrived at the Cenacolo community at Knock, County Mayo, he had no options left. He shares how God saved him from heroin addiction; Alice Cairns from Dublin experienced every mother's nightmare when her teenage son went missing without trace. She tells how she coped; Arthur McCluskey from County Kildare was a compulsive gambler. He went to Medugorje as a reluctant pilgrim in 1999 and returned home a changed man; Athlone woman Marion Carroll was on death's door when she arrived at Knock Shrine in 1989. Today, she reflects on her miraculous healing from Multiple Sclerosis; and, When Rita Woods was diagnosed with Alzheimers, her husband, Michael, prayed for a miracle cure. She never did receive a physical healing, but healing came to her husband and children in the most unexpected ways. Ultimately, this is a book that gives us the courage to believe there is always hope, even when things seem at their worst.
