Apparitions of Modern Saints: Appearances of Therese of Lisieux, Padre Pio, Don Bosco, and Others: Messages from God to His People on Earth FROM THE PUBLISHER Apparitions of Modern Saints recounts fascinating stories of after-death appearances of Therese of Lisieux, Don Bosco, Padre Pio, Mother Cabrini, Katharine Drexel, Solanus Casey, Pope John XXIII, and many other nineteenth- and twentieth-century saints. Many of these are accompanied by miracles such as instantaneous healing of terminal illnesses or dramatic rescues from certain death. Such apparitions are found in Scripture and have been recorded among Christians and those of other faith traditions throughout history. These messengers from God bring healing, encouragement, wisdom, and spiritual freedom. However, they bring to us another gift as well: These appearances bear witness to the reality of the communion of saints, the extraordinary association of the faithful living on earth with those who already stand before God's throne.
