On April 21, Bishop Johnston will travel to Mexico City to the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe with religious sisters who serve in our diocese who are members of the Poor Clare Missionary Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament for the beatification of their foundress, Mother Maria Ines Teresa Arias. Cardinal Amato, Prefect of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, will preside over the beatification. The sisters will share about their experience during the trip the last Sunday in April at Sacred Heart Parish in Poplar Bluff. Following is information about the miracle that paved the way for the beatification:
Francisco Javier Carrilo Guzman was completely healed of brain damage after nearly drowning in a pool in Guadalajara, Mexico, on June 17, 2001.
Doctors had given him little chance of surviving the severe asphyxiation that damaged his brain. The baby's family prayed to Mother Arias, and further examinations by doctors showed that his brain damage had completely disappeared without leaving any scars or neurological side-effects.
