Absolutely true!
Yep. Mrs. 2ndDivisionVet has been an optician/manager for nearly 30 years. She agrees.
So we will have a Blessed Teresa Demjanovich in the U.A. Wow!
Good news.
Ridiculous
Yeah, but maybe the Pope was mistranslated or misunderstood.
“opening the way to her beatification”
If she wasn’t a saint when she died, she won’t become one now, no matter how many intercessions are attributed to her.
Let’s hope she was a true believer in Christ before death.
What is ridiculous is that someone who says that they are a Christian has the name of a weapon as a screen-name.
My grandfather and I used to hunt deer with .45 Colt. Plus, all the great names like Budvis were taken.
Rather than being snarky I should have asked why you are hanging around a conservative website if you are opposed to the Second Amendment and believe Christians shouldn’t be firearm enthusiasts. In addition to enjoying various shooting sports, I take my God-given responsibility to protect my family seriously. I am a peace-loving man and I pray I am never in such a situation, but if I must employ lethal force to protect my wife and children so be it.
Maybe guns are anti-Catholic, I wouldn’t know about that. I do know, however, they are not anti-Christian.
This is that wonderful moment when the haters of the Catholic Church sing Kumbaya with the atheists and offer “scientific” explanations!
Praise God!
“...If she wasn’t a saint when she died she won’t become one now...”
This is true. Everyone who makes it to heaven is a saint. Beatified saints are recognized so their lives as extraordinary followers of Christ can inspire us.
Obviously she was a true believer in Christ.
What, pray tell, is “rediculous” about this article? That a boy got cured of macular degeneration or that God performed yet another miraculous healing today?
It’s ridiculous that you put “rediculous” in quotes as if I misspelled the word.
It’s also ridiculous that anyone believes a long dead nun healed anyone. God works miracles. Dead nuns don’t.
It’s ridiculous that so many will believe that silly claim, and a host of others, while denying the plain truths of Scripture.
“Obviously she was a true believer in Christ.”
Lots of non-believers do good things. Salvation comes from entrusting oneself totally in faith to Christ’s sacrifice. Did she? We can hope so.
Miracles attributed to someone is no guarantee that they were even a believer.
