Amen.
The soul of Gabriel Augustine Hall is now in full realization of who he is. God loves virgins and innocent children.
Gabriel is in the embrace of Jesus.
Amen X 2.
In 1954 I had a little sister – Lynda – who died of encephalitis when she was just 22 months old. She was a beautiful & very bright child. In 1984 my older brother, while driving heavy trucks in Saudi Arabia, had a serious accident while he was transporting a heavy crane from Alkobar to Medina and was pinned inside his truck way out in the desert miles from anywhere, so help was hours away. He claimed that Lynda appeared to him and helped him survive till aid came.
That event, along with mother’s prayers brought him back to the Faith. He died here back in NZ in 2013 aged 72, a priest having spent hours with him the day before.
She is our family saint.

Thank you for sharing. I’m sorry for your young sister but I believe the miraculous story. They went home at a time that God wanted them home. Mr.and Mrs. McClarey know that pain.
So do you.
Your sister went to work. I’m certain Don’s son is working too. From home.
Pax Christi.
Don – this is remarkable. It must be bittersweet to loose a loved one before their time yet know they are interceding with Our Lord. Thank you for sharing this. It moved me.
