Physical Difficulties > Back Problems

Texas Healing Services Testimonies, March 2008:

Connie Pena of the Tyler Diocese reported having a hump and crookedness of the spine in her neck dissolve as well as persistent knee pain disappearing. She publicly gave witness to Jesus’ miracle grace at two healing services.

A woman at a healing service in Flint, TX reported that she came into the church with back pain. After prayer, she rested in the Spirit. While resting in God’s love, she felt something pop in her back, and stood up pain free.

A deacon in Palestine, TX reported that sacroiliac pain disappeared during the healing service. He went up to the microphone during the healing service to publicly give testimony and thanksgiving.

Immediately the morning after the healing service in Longview, a woman called to report healing of her back.

From May 2007 Newsletter:

Illinois: My daughter Teresa has had back problems since she was rear-ended in a car accident 25 years ago. The upper part of her back was injured than. Her lower part of her back was injured when she worked as a nurse’s aid in a nursing home. (The injury was further compounded by another accident and she had to go on disability.) She was getting injections to control the pain. Teresa attended the mass and healing service by Fr. Fontana on December 3, 2006. She didn’t plan to go up to be prayed over, but my friend grabbed her by the arm and insisted she go up. She didn’t know what to ask for at the spur of the moment. I suggested she ask that she would be able to stop smoking. However, when Father prayed over her, instead of her request to stop smoking, he prayed for healing of her spine, which she had not mentioned. She then rested in the Spirit. As we were walking out in the parking lot, she told us she had a healing of her back. She said it felt like a mild electrical shock going down her back as Father prayed over her. From that time on, she has had no pain in her back. So we offer prayers and gratitude and thanksgiving for the healing of Teresa. (Father Fontana always precludes praying over a person by asking, “What do you want Jesus to do for you?” The Holy Spirit reveals to Father Glenn the person’s deepest need as shown in the testimony above.)

From October 2006 Newsletter:

IL:---“Thank God for you, Father Fontana! I know that God is the one that is actually healing people but without me finding out about your Healing Service and without you touching me (actually it was the Holy Spirit that she felt), I might have had to go through traction or even surgery to reduce the pain in my back due to a growth spur. However since then and me falling backwards under the power of God I AM TOTALLY HEALED of my back pain…”

IL:---A woman from Oaklawn wrote to Father Fontana to let him know the progress of her healing experience through the Holy Spirit. She writes, “You’ll be happy to know my severe back pain is gone!”

From March 1st, 2005 Newsletter:

Update from Oak Forest, IL: Pollyanna writes that she attended Father Fontana’s Healing Service in August 2004, asking for healing for her back. She was healed and THANKS OUR LORD JESUS for sending Father Fontana and His instrument to heal her…….She also requests a healing for her mother for a compression fracture of her spine…..”Father Fontana was so blessed by OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST to perform so many healings that touch so many hearts…….”

Margot e-mailed Father Fontana: “Thanks for being here Father, we are hearing many beautiful reports and I for one am slowly noticing a change in my back problems since I came up for prayer….There is something very wonderful that happens when the ‘Priest who wears the black suit with the white collar’ says, ‘lift your hands IN PRAISE TO THE LORD’ as you did during Mass. We obedient Catholics have a tendency not to do certain things without permission from Father and those simple words gave permission to an obedient church – very freeing! Yeaaa!”
