This gesture (and whatever he said while gesturing) were a call out to God for help. In an instant, all the effects of the drug were gone! And then A Woman appeared to him! She had blue eyes and golden hair. He wondered if this was Mary. Now I understood why he was asking me about how Mary looked. I listened intently and encouraged him in his faith walk especially how he could easily return to the faith of his family (Catholicism). He then accepted prayer for many things including for his COPD and the effects of a past stroke. He was not in any pain but felt his walking had suffered after the stroke. After prayer, he did not want to stand up and walk to test his legs. I encouraged him to and finally, he got up. “I’m going to walk to that bench and see.” He pointed to a bench across the street. He never returned. Another life touched through loving conversation.

Praised be Jesus Christ! Great work, Royal Oak team!
