  I would NEVER underestimate the ways of God. NOTHING is beyond His abilities.

  Anyone from the Chicago area is familiar with the tragic fire at Our Lady of the Angels school in 1958 that killed 92 students and 3 Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. One family lost their son, and his Sicilian mother was grief stricken, and could not stop crying. She stopped functioning, and it was up to the husband to keep his family going on with life. Several months after the fire, God sent a visitation to the mother. In her sleep, her son came to her. She could touch him. He was warm. She could smell his scent. He told her he was happy and with Jesus and he was sent to her so she could stop grieving. It worked and she was able to accept her loss and live again.

  My ex fiance was paralyzed in an accident. His new way to “hug” since he was unable to lift his arms was to push his cheek to my left cheek for about 10 seconds. After 3 years, He passed away suddenly. A few weeks after he passed, I felt a pressure on my cheek for about ten seconds and my cheek became very warm. I knew it was him. It was so incredibly  comforting. I believe he is restored and is walking again with Jesus. ❤

  I lived in the same neighborhood from 1972-2020. In 2014 my mom passed. After her funeral a green hummingbird showed up. I was just watching it. Then when I opened the sliding glass door to go back inside, it quickly flew in before I could close it. &nbsp;It flew into the kitchen and sat in the window area above the sink. When i walked over, it didn’t fly away or even flinch. I said, “Mom?” I reached out, picked it up. It didn’t try to fly away and felt so soft and warm in the palm of my hand. I walked out side, opened my hand, said I love you and will miss you, and it flew off.” &nbsp;I looked down and saw in the palm of my hand that it left one beautiful green feather that I still have with me. <br><br>I’d never seen a green hummingbird in my area, ever.

  When my brother committed suicide, my Mother, of course was devastated. &nbsp;She was the most devoted Catholic I have ever known. &nbsp;I don&apos;t want to say my brother was not a Christian, but he turned away from God. &nbsp;He suffered from very deep depression for many years. &nbsp;He was a good person, but his wife taking his sons when she left him just destroyed him. &nbsp;About 2 or 3 weeks after he died, my Mom told us that she woke up in the middle of the night, and my brother was standing at the end of her bed. &nbsp;He told her that he was in purgatory, and that he was okay. &nbsp;This helped my Mom so much with her grief.

  My youngest daughter passed away at 10 weeks old in 2021. When you said “my baby was real.” It hit me hard hard. I repeated it to myself when I look at the few photos we have of her. But she was real, she was really here. For a short time we held and loved her. My baby was real. Thank you, Father Mike for this 💗 St. Capri, Ora pro nobis.

  Two days after my dad passed away i had a dream and remember &nbsp;it so vividly . That night before, &nbsp;i went to sleep crying praying and saying “dad why did you leave me all alone ?” because i couldn’t believe that he was suddenly gone. in my dream it was pitch black and in a distant voice with a dim light brightening i heard his voice clearly say in Spanish “es que ya estaba cansada mija. Estoy bien . Te quiero mucho .” The next day i felt a sense of comfort knowing that he was not suffering or in pain . <br>The days that proceeded although were hard we were all comforted knowing how loved he was by our church community . We were raised and brought up in our Catholic Church community where he was an usher and he was known as centurion in the passion play for more than 30 years . The night of his funeral services the church looked like it was an Easter mass service . It was full . That’s when i knew that my dad was loved and cared for by so many because he was such a kind,loving, and devout catholic. I found peace knowing that he was okay and in heaven with the Lord &nbsp;. <br><br>That day at the service my nephew came up to me and said i just saw your dad (4 years old) he says he’s okay i saw him . I’m like he is he was in the casket and he said no he was watching us from the side of the church entrance . He was there the whole time and then he left .<br><br>My dad was a devout catholic who helped the church in evey way he could . I believe he wanted to be there until his very last day with everyone he loved . <br>I believe he got to see how much he was loved and how he impacted alot of peoples life without even knowing it . I miss him everyday day , but he’s watching over me and my son now .

  22 years ago, I sat by my husband when he passed away from &nbsp;cancer. &nbsp;I looked at the clock to see the time of death. &nbsp;Now, whenever I see that same time. AM or PM I say a prayer for him and all the souls in purgatory.

  Father, we don&apos;t need the beauty of flowers or the Shroud of Turin to believe in Jesus, &nbsp;BUT, if God gives these comforting signs, we should receive them with humble thanksgivings.

  I didn&apos;t mourn my mother, &nbsp;3 years later she came to me in a dream and asked, &quot;what are you going to do about it?&quot; The damage broke, I cried and &nbsp;cried for it seems hours, the tears ebbed and peace bathed my soul.
