​Annabel Beam spent most of her childhood in and out of hospitals with a rare and incurable digestive disorder that prevented her from living a normal, healthy life. One sunny day when she was able to go outside and play with her sisters, she fell three stories headfirst into an old, hollowed-out tree. Implausibly, she survived without a scratch. While unconscious inside the tree, with rescue workers struggling to get to her, she visited heaven. After being released from the hospital, she defied science and had inexplicably recovered from her chronic ailment.
A remarkable family drama and uplifting, hope-filled memoir, MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN will change how we look at the world around us.

A FAMILY EASTER CELEBRATION:  It lasts 50 days!

​Janet Schaeffler OP offers many creative ideas of things to do as a family, including taking an Emmaus walk.

​Before you start out, read the Emmaus story (Lk 24: 13-35) together.
Then go to some place that has special meaning to your family, or to some place where you haven’t gone for a while. Imagine that Jesus is walking with you.
