Angel Rescues
Story of the Week, January 9, 2010, My Valentine
When Valentine’s Day approaches, we think of romantic love. But that’s not the only kind, as Alice Hennig would point out. She was seventeen when her family moved to a new area in Edmonton, Alberta. One cold Sunday afternoon in February, her parents were entertaining some relatives, and Alice decided to visit a friend from [...]
Story of the Week, November 6, 2009, Pool Party
Originally published 2008 in WorldNetDaily, but I thought you’d appreciate it.
A Florida mother experienced what she is calling a miracle when her young daughter was presumed drowned in a pool, and three strangers brought the girl back to life. Meagan Durocher, who will turn two later this month, fell into a pool at Bristol Pines [...]
Story of the Week, September 11, 2009 Remembering
—All through this day, 9/11/09, I have tried to come up with a theme for our angel newsletter due today. It’s been difficult.

Story of the Week, August 28, 2009, Keeping Watch
Hello, angels. Just wanted to update you on the little boy, Isaac Frank, who you all prayed for after he was seriously burned in an accident this summer. Isaac’s story will appear in their diocesan newspaper this week, written by his mom and grandmom, and if you could see a recent photo of him, even [...]
Story of the Week, July 31, 2009, Angel in the Army
Dennis Fredrickson of Culver City, California, was drafted into the military during the Vietnam War, and like many servicemen and women, he believes in small miracles. When you’ve come that close to death, veterans say, it’s easy to recognize the hand of God.
In fact, Dennis believes that the first miracle he received during this time [...]
Story of the Week 3/13/09
Hello, angel friends. Just wanted to remind you that with Easter approaching, our people in Arkansas (the JoAnn Cayce Charities) will once again be arranging an Easter egg hunt for the children there, if they receive anything to give away. I always send some stuffed bunnies from summer garage sales, but if it’s too late [...]
Story of the Week 1/23/09
Hello, angel friends. It’s time for another angel story. But first the usual announcements:
—My friend, Barbara Brabec, who is the guru of home-based businesses, has been Getting Organized and has assembled a terrific private catalog of books, CDs and VHS tapes on a wide variety of topics, most of which are priced between $1 and $6 [...]
Thanksgiving Gift
It was Thanksgiving Day and Harriet Schmitt and her husband John were traveling from their home in Santa Barbara to spend the holiday and weekend with his parents in Chula Vista, California. “We picked up our older daughter at the University of California, Irvine, on our way,” Harriet says. “When we arrived, my mother-in-law, [...]
Panic in the Surf
Jan and Lee, a teenage couple, had gone to Huntington Beach, California, rather late on a weekday. Maybe this was why there were no lifeguards stationed along the shore, and hardly any people there either. “The waves were huge,” Jan says. “There was a storm at sea, and the waves were breaking [...]
Over the River and Through the Woods
I was a guest on CFRB Radio in Canada, discussing angels with the host and callers. A young man named John phoned in, and told us of a time two years before when, as a college student, he had been touring Germany, and had lost his way. By the time he found the bus [...]
