Thanks BCLS!

I had a lovely afternoon on Friday, May 18, 2018.  BCLS invited Finding Hope on Vegas to their Booked For Lunch event.

There was a nice turnout and some great discussion about God and miracles after the presentation.  Because many people lingered to talk, the cleaning crew patiently waited for me to finish the book signing.  They simply smiled and said ‘No hurries.’ What a great crew!

As a bonus, some family and friends I do not get to see very often came.

Thanks to the Booked for Lunch Staff at Alice and Jack Wirt Public Library for a wonderful day!

Humbled at Our Lady of Hope

What a fantastic Saturday, thanks to a wonderful group of people from Our Lady of Hope Parish in Clare, MI.  A big shout out to Donna and her team of ladies who arranged for me to present Finding Hope on Vegas to a large crowd.  During the presentation we discussed the types of prayer and how it is instrumental in helping people deal with life’s unexpected.

After the presentation the ladies provided a delightful brunch which allowed me to meet many people and hear their own touching stories.

As a bonus, I sold more than fifty Finding Hope on Vegas books.  I am humbled by such a response! God is good!   May the Good Lord continue to bless Our Lady of Hope Parish as they strive to bring others to Christ.

Third Time is a Charm

Due to the crazy weather in March, the Finding Hope on Vegas presentation will be held this Thursday at the Birch Run Library. I am praying the weather cooperates since this is the third attempt. Hope to see ya there!

FINDING HOPE ON VEGAS POSTER 4

I couldn’t put the book down. I love how this mom tells her story of the accident and all the miracles & medicine that followed that kept her son alive. You will never doubt the power of prayer after reading this book. Have a tissue ready when you read it because you actually feeling like you are right there with her every step of the way.

Alma College

A big shout out to Judy McKenna, Director of Nursing Education, for inviting me to come and speak with the Nursing students at Alma College.  Finding Hope on Vegas was a required read last fall for many students in the Alma Nursing program.  I can not wait to hear the students’ perspectives on the book and answer their questions.  Wish me luck!
