Hi Fr Nigel,

I have shared my testimony with you before in the past, but wanted to share it again since it’s been 5 years since my cancer diagnosis, a milestone that I am celebrating with joy and gratitude.

Five years ago, in May 2020 I was diagnosed with high-grade (aggressive) stage 4B peritoneal cancer. The cancer was spread throughout my abdominal cavity, throughout my omentum, both ovaries, fallopian tubes, and a lymph node under my rib cage. This type of cancer is considered rare and incurable, and the typical survival rate is only a few months.

I got sick during Covid lock downs, and was not able to go to a healing service in person, so I scheduled a phone call with you. At the beginning of our call, you said you felt heaviness, but by the end of the call, you said that this heaviness had lifted. I didn’t understand exactly what this meant, but took it as a good sign. I moved forward with chemotherapy, and implemented massive lifestyle changes. The Word of God became my daily ‘medicine’ and I clung to it like a life raft.

Not long into my journey, I had a CT scan in preparation for my surgery. My Dr. was astounded because my scans revealed the cancer throughout my body was no longer visible. Not long after the scan, she performed my surgery, and there was nothing to be found. My Dr. came out of my surgery to update my husband, and told him “I don’t believe in miracles, I believe in science, but this was a miracle.”

Despite this incredible news, my Dr. told me the cancer was likely to return soon since it is aggressive and has a very high reoccurrence rate. This broke my spirit and I was devastated at the idea of leaving my young children behind without their mother.

When Covid restrictions let up, I was finally able to go to a healing service in person. I went through the line and you told me to go touch the fringe of the alter, similar to the woman with the issue of blood who touched Jesus’ cloak in Mark 5:27. Several months later, Fr Nigel you called our house to pray for my husband’s ankle surgery, and we ended up in conversation about my fears of reoccurrence. You prayed over this curse and rebuked it, and sent it off to a black hole. Thank you! I have so much gratitude; your prayers brought me so much comfort and hope. Every time I started to worry the cancer would return, I would remind myself that it’s been sent away to a black hole.

It has now been five years since my diagnosis, and I am very healthy. According to my Dr, my blood work is perfect and my most recent scan continues to show no sign of cancer. I thank God every day for healing me. I also thank you Father Nigel for praying for me in my time of need! J I am forever changed and forever grateful.

See you on Sunday,
