Miracle Brings Boy to Canonization Mass

Dear Friends:

 
I've attached this article from the Bellingham Herald regarding Jake Finkbonner and his family.  You might recall this was the boy whose miraculous cure I investigated as President of the Rogatory Board of Inquiry for the Second Miracle.  I had the chance to touch base with the family since they were at the same hotel as our Yakima pilgrims.  Click here to read the story: http://www.bellinghamherald.com/2012/10/18/2732657/finkbonners-arrive-in-rome-for.html
