Paula Medina Zarate, who was miraculously healed through the intercession of Blessed Solanus Casey, will speak and take questions following a 7:00 p.m. Mass and blessing of the sick on July 24 at St. Ambrose Catholic Church, 15020 Hampton in Grosse Pointe Park. Joining Srta. Medina will be her parish pastor, Father Jozef Timmers, OFM Cap., the Capuchin friar who encouraged her to pray to Father Solanus.

Sra. Medina will be in Detroit to participate in a novena leading to the first-ever celebration of the Feast of Blessed Solanus on July 30. A retired teacher, she traveled from her home in Panama to Detroit in 2012 to pray at the tomb of Father Solanus. It was during this time of prayer that she received a life-changing, miraculous cure from Icthyiosis, a skin condition which causes the skin to become dry and scaly.
 
All are invited to attend this wonderful opportunity to speak directly with someone who experienced a bonafide miracle. The full schedule for the novena and feast day activities is available at solanuscasey.org/feast.
