We had the privilege of Fr. Patrick Crowley's joining us as the Retreat Master for our Corpus Christi celebration at the invitation of our parish priest Fr. Anthony Hutjes, ss.cc. The themes were "Mystery of the Mass", "Perpetual Adoration", "Proclaiming Christ's Love" and "Holy Mother of God."
Mass was celebrated for the whole week and during Fr. Pat's homily many who attended experienced God's blessings and healing too. Five of our SS.CC. Priests participated in the Wednesday Healing Service.
The following are some of the letters received expressing gratitude for various graces and blessings received:
SPIRITUAL BLESSING AND HEALING:
"I received deep peace and strength, graces to forgive self, to have a deeper relationship with Jesus and a closer love for Mary."
"I felt so much joy in my heart"
"Freeing me of an overburdened and anguished heart and renewing my faith and strength and trust in the Lord."
"There was calmness in my heart. I was touched and moved by the Holy Spirit and teared. I was released from a bondage that has been bothering me for months."
"I attended with so many questions in my head, with a sorrow in my heart and no inner peace. During the Mass, I was touched and spiritually healed day to day and was able to surrender everythng to God
"I came from Indonesia to attend Fr. Pat's talks. I had a better understanding of my problem with my husband. I went to confession and felt relieved and during Mass I could feel the presence of Jesus something I was longng for - for years."
"I was in discomfort and not able to concetrate but I still attended the talk and I felt so much better after the Mass."
"I live in Sengkang and I still came and I went home with so much joy and peace in my heart. I felt His presence on all the days I attended."
"I received the spiritual catalyst of pure faith."
"This Church is not my parish and somehow I felt led to it. I went to confession after 23 years so that I could receive communion and feel totally blessed."
"For the past six months I was filled with so much bitterness and now I feel my heart is not like that anymore."
"My friend left the Catholic Church and was involved in the occult. I knew she had problems but she never confided in me. I met her and invited her to attend and was surprised she said "yes".
She was so touched that she cried. She shared with me that she had been going to various temples and had an abortion. I am glad I invited her."
"I felt more strength and power when I rested in the spirit and later I felt a weight lifted off me and it was so relaxing and wonderful. I was also blessed with a small windfall which really helped in my financial difficulty."
"I have being having dizzy spells and it was getting worse and worse despite the medication. I was not able to attend Sunday Mass too. A good catholic school mate rang me and told me about Father Pat's session and told me that she would take me. I felt much better after attending."
"I was able to atend the talks as being a domestic worker it is difficult for me. But during the week, my employer was away."
PHYSICAL HEALINGS RECEIVED;
"I have being having neck pain for so many years and I was healed of it."
"I met my Godmother on Thursday who told me about Fr. Pat's session. I sat at the front and Fr. Pat mentioned that there was someone who was hurt by family members and there were being healed of a broken heart. My mother in law and my son has been hurting me and have no respect for me and that mornng my son was very rude. When I went home that night, he was extra sweet and nice. When I saw my mother in law I did not feel any resentment."
"I attended the few nights and felt no pain in my left breast and my right knee is better."
"My husband is attending and I can see that his backache is being healed slowly. My aches in my arms are lesser."
"Received a healing from "ringing in the ear."
"All my body pain is gone."
"I am healed of my depression as my husband left me and I am now better."
"Healing of my heart and swollen left eye."
"I felt my stomach ache and now I also felt so loved."
"For healing my varicose veins as my legs are not so heavy and no swelling. Today I can walk around more feely at work."
"I was having a terrible backache. The ache went down to the foot level. I cannot stand long and needed to sit every five minutes. After the Mass on Monday, the ache was gone by half and the next day, I was completely healed."
"I was healed of my backache."
"I was healed of my lymph poisoning."
