I was down at the New Deluxe Bakery located at 10731 South Ridgeland at Chicago Ridge, IL. I and my mom had attended the healing service by Father Fontana on August 24, 2010. My mom and I have been going through some difficult times as I recently lost my job and bills are piling up. It came my turn to go in front of Father Fontana for the blessing. I pray every day to Jesus about our concerns and needs. I have alot of faith. As I stood in front of Father, he asked me what I want from Jesus. I responded, very resolute in my faith, that "Jesus already knows what my needs are; I pray to him everyday." I began to say my wishes to acquire a new position when Father Fontana interrupted me. Father said, "what about your back between L4 and L5? and what about the depression and anxiety you have been experiencing?" I immediately knew this message was coming directly from the Lord. There was no way Father Fontana would know this, but by divine intervention. Jesus sent the message to me, not because I had any doubt he was listening to me everyday, but he sent this message so I could testify to others as to what had occurred. After the healing, I went to the kitchen area, where the group was gathered. One woman got up and gave testimony to her experience in the recent past. I then got up and gave testimony to what just happened. I had bought some prayer cards and other items to pass out to others, which I have been doing. I will continue to do so, as I am inspired and thankful for this experience and all the blessings that the Lord has bestowed on us. Though we stll are going through some rough spots, I know mom and I do not walk alone. The Lord hears us and guides us. My prayer is that others will read this and understand that the Lord is really listening. Keep the Faith! Even if something does not happen overnight, the Lord has not abandoned you.

God bless you and yours,

Hello Fr. Fontana,

I just wanted to let you know that this morning I woke up and I noticed something significant right away! I did not have that thought that runs through my head every morning "I hate myself I hate myself I hate myself", that is what went through my head every morning and it was gone! So far that is all I have noticed but I want to thank you for your wonderful healing ministry, praise the Lord Jesus for sending the Holy Spirit down upon me!

Sincerely,

Cecelia

Dear Fr. Fontana,

You are wonderful! I was just thinking how I have to write to you and tell you how much I enjoyed meeting you, and what a blessing you are, and here you wrote to me! I was so sorry that I couldn't see you Sunday before you left, but my husband (who hadn't been to confession in 3 years until Sat. night), wanted to spend some time together with the family Sunday morning, and how could I say no?

The healing service was wonderful, and praise God, I think we had a few miracles that evening. Sophia, my 18 month old, seems so much better and happier and I think her ear infections may be gone. For myself, I received a healing too! It was uncanny when I asked for mental and physical healing and you mentioned depression, because I have never thought of my self as depressed in the true sense of the word. However, about 8 months ago, my doctor put me on an anti- depressant to help me deal with my feeling of being so overwhelmed and increased irritability with my children. I felt I had lost the ""Joie de Vivre"" I once had. Well, I can't tell you , but I have such a sense of peace since the conference and feel a sense of contentment that I haven't felt in a long while. Praise God and I thank the Holy Spirit for bringing you to us.

After meeting you and all the wonderful priests at the conference, I have a renewed sense of hope! What a blessing this weekend was! I will order the novena and our little group will all say it for our parish and Fr. Bob. I know that the Holy Spirit has us here for a reason!

Please know that you are in my prayers and how blessed I feel to have met you! You have "Familia" in Park City now. Please know if you ever want to come for a visit, work or pleasure, you are welcome to stay with us. I will pray for your ministry as the world so desperately needs it.

Mille grazie!

In Christ,

Dawn
