On
17th March 1999 on week two of Set My People On
Fire, I felt a lump in my left breast too large to
ignore.
I
went to my doctor that morning and she immediately
referred me for an ultrasound. While waiting for my
appointment, I went home to tidy the house to keep
my mind off the ultrasound. As I picked up a toy
from the floor, my eyes focused on a video about
Padre Pio entitled, "Pray, Hope and Don't
Worry".

This video had been stored away for months and months.
My husband, I later found out, had put it in the VCR the
night before I had discovered the lump. I took this as an
encouraging sign from the Lord and, that is exactly what I
did: I prayed, hoped and, as much as I could, I didn't
worry. Now it was time for the ultrasound. During the
ultrasound I began to feel very fearful. I closed my eyes
and said a heartfelt prayer, "Jesus please help me, and
please help the doctor." The moment I said the prayer I felt
the most overwhelming sense of peace and presence of Jesus
with me.
The ultrasound over, I waited to collect the report.
It read, "A collection of simple cysts: 20.7 x 9.5mm - 20.8
x 3.9mm - 2.2 x 3.5mm - 12.2 x 3.3mm" - Simple cysts or not,
I did not want them there! After collecting the report I
went to my car where I couldn't help but feel for the lumps
again. They were not there! You can imagine how happy I was
and immediately I started thanking God and Jesus, and went
straight home to tell my husband.
Later, I spoke to the doctors receptionist. I was
advised to return for a repeat ultrasound in three months
time to check on something else that the ultrasound had
picked up. The morning of 10th June 1999, week 14 of SMPOF
and the day of the repeat ultrasound arrived, I opened my
drawer to get my clothes out, when, onto the floor flopped a
Padre Pio prayer card which, was not put there by my
husband! Again, I was being reminded: Pray, Hope, and Don't
worry! I had the repeat ultrasound. The report reads: "There
are no present signs of a solid or cystic structure."
I was, and I still am, overjoyed! I thank Jesus that
He answered my prayer so immediately. I think it's no mere
coincidence that this all happened during the Set My People
On Fire Seminar. I'm am so grateful to you all for your
dedication and commitment to Our Father, Jesus and the Holy
Spirit, and to the Catholic Church.
The seminar assisted me in standing on God's Word for
his perfect plan for all parts of my life, unwaveringly. My
whole family has been blessed through me doing the course.
My husband and the children just love hearing about what
happens on those Wednesday nights. My son, 7 years old,
suggested I could do the course all over again so that I can
teach him even more next time. I am being given many
opportunities to talk to people about Jesus (one to one) and
also to pray for others. You may also be interested to know
that my lifelong nail-biting habit was broken during the
seminar too.
I am sure all this was due to some inner healing
brought about by the topics that were covered and also your
powerful prayers. Set
My People On Fire
is truly inspiring, life giving and life opening. THANK YOU.
May God continue to bless you abundantly.
Your friend in Christ,
Brigitte.
