Eva and her mother were at the hospital, sitting at the bedside of her father.  He was very ill and hadn’t spoken in several days, and although she and her mother had prayed so hard, it looked as if her father was not going to recover.

Story of the Week, December 18, Christmas Comes

Hello, angel lovers.  This is the last of our stories for 2009.  Is it my imagination, or did this year fly by?  We

Story of the Week June 19, 2009, Dimes from Heaven

Hello, friends.  Over the past several years, we’ve shared stories about “pennies from heaven.”  Many of us can’t help but believe that pennies are little hugs from our angels.  Do you remember the young soldier who went to Iraq, and found pennies in the sand there throughout his tour of duty?

Story of the Week May 22 2009, Isaac’s Miracle

Hello, angel lovers.  Today there are NO announcements, just a very special story.
We often say, “I’ll pray for you!”  But do we honestly believe that there is power in prayer, even more power when many are praying in unison?  For those of you who responded to the call this past week, to pray for a [...]

Hello, angel friends.  You are the best!  Lots of you sent get-well cards and notes to JoAnn Cayce who is recovering from pneumonia, and they just made her day/week/month!  I knew all I would have to do is to mention this, and you would respond.  JoAnn says she has never received this much mail, [...]

They were on a small country road, admiring the scenery, when suddenly a large car approached. The driver (who they later discovered was drunk) was aiming right for them.

So Much Left to Do

When Thomas Stevens was 22, he had a serious accident. He fell toward a window, and put his arms out to break the fall. Instead, his left arm went through the glass and he severed most of its tendons and arteries. His then-girlfriend, Sarah, had the presence of mind to make a tourniquet out of [...]
