The following story comes to us from SPSE store customer Bill in Kansas City, Missouri:
Yesterday, I stopped by Lowe’s to pick up something for my house. The employee in the checkout area helped me, and as I was about to leave, something told me I should give her a Miraculous Medal care package. (It contains a Miraculous Medal on a chain and holy card.) So I got one out of my car and went back in. She was helping another customer, so I just patiently waited for her. When she was done, she turned to look at me and I asked if she was Catholic. She said she was raised Catholic, but her voice trailed off. I said I have a Spiritual Gift for you. I gave it to her and asked if she would wear it. She indicated that she would. I opened the bag for her and handed her the medal & chain, and she put it on, thanking me over and over. I said you’re very welcome. As I left I had a wonderful feeling of joy and warmth overwhelmed me. Such a simple thing, but I pray that this somehow changes her life and relationship with God for the better.
Praised be Jesus Christ!
