Testimonies to the Lord's healing love during the Missions:

• For the first time since I was young I am feeling God is out there. There was the first concrete evidence of God and Jesus' power. JA, 33

• I feel closer to God, like I'm on a journey to somewhere wonderful. I feel forgiveness toward a certain person and love and fellowship towards others. HD, 55

• This is the first time, after 20 years of arthritis, that it felt gone. I was able to stand in the pew without help. MK, 58

• I am not a member of the Catholic Church but I experienced inner healing, inner peace, able to forgive a family member, better eyesight, stronger faith, and able to let go of past hurts. SM, 55

• This mission brought me closer to Jesus and helped me forgive a friend whom I've been angry with for three years. I left each night feeling peaceful. Also my wrist hasn't bothered me since last night and it has been hurting for three years. BS, 47

• I feel as if I have "come back to God." MW, 64
