A little while ago Maria sent us a thank you note she received through the mail from a friend. She had forgotten all about it but several years ago she put a prayer request in the prayer box.
The daughter of this friend had several treatments and a brain surgery while pregnant with her first child. A congenital defect was discovered after she complained having often headaches.
This might prove dangerous with a spontaneous childbirth. In the meantime she gave birth to a third baby, three times she had a normal childbirth without any problems.
We let Michel, 58 years old, a retired military man, tell his story:
"I want to start my testimony in 1995, when I was going through a very difficult period in my life. My marriage ended in a divorce and inside I was very, very restless and unhappy. One day I got to know a kind Dutch couple in Neeroeteren: Annie and Wiljo. We immediately got along very well with one another, and they became my very best friends.
Raised from the dead... heard at first hand from the cardiologist!
In the gospel Jesus not only gives us the order to heal the sick but also to raise the dead... Many don't believe in healing sick people by prayer, let alone in raising dead ones. And yet it also still happens today!
In consequence of a heavy accident, Ludwina's back is already troubling her for years now and again. She has to move regularly for it, she has to swim and to make exercises. Some ten years ago a doctor told her she had one vertebra, similar to that of a woman of 80 years. At the end of 2006 she went back to a doctor because she needed a prescription for the physiotherapist. He was of the opinion that she had not shown up for a very long time indeed.
