WHEN HEAVEN ANSWERS

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. 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
