Remember the many miracles Jesus performed in his 33 years on earth as revealed in the Bible? And when He promised the gift of miracles would persist in the Church (Mark 16:17 )?
According to the humble priest and author of a new book – whom several of the St. Michael Society editors have had the priviledge to know – miracles were not just made manifest in the days of old; Jesus is performing them through believers in this very day in age. Fr. Stefan Starzynski shares:
I personally believe that Jesus never intended his miracles to lessen or cease, but we slowly began to accept the idea that miracles are rare in the Church; they are usually associated with very holy men and women or holy places like Lourdes, France,” Father Stefan shared. ” With this belief, came a reduction in the number of miracles. Many people conclude that because I am not a saint, Jesus would not work a miracle through me. I believe that Jesus is once again moving his hand to work great signs and wonders among his people to awaken a skeptical age.

MIRACLE STORIES, VISIONS DOCUMENTED IN NEW BOOK INSPIRE RENEWAL OF FAITH AND HOPE FOR MANY
NEW BOOK SHOWS HOW GOD AND THE BLESSED MOTHER WORK THROUGH A HUMBLE PRIEST
WASHINGTON, DC – “The existential miracles that have happened through Father Stefan have become a new flame of hope set to rekindle the mind of the contemporary Christian and a world in desperate need of hope.” So writes Reverend Father Boniface Ewah in his brilliant introduction to a new book by Father Stefan Starzynski titled: Miracles: Healing for a Broken World (Published by Our Sunday Visitor).
The book not only documents how God is working through Father Stefan, who worked closely for months with Blessed Mother Theresa, it also demonstrates the amazing power of prayer and faith that is often lacking in today’s modern society. Indeed Father Stefan reveals how prayer and faith are unequivocally linked to the various miracles Father Stefan outlines in the book supported by full and beautiful, if not heart wrenching, testimonials from the various individuals on the receiving end of these miracles.
Through prayer, faith and his increasingly popular Healing Mass, Father Stefan recounts numerous stories ranging from the healing of the sick, including babies, to miraculous events that occurred on his ordination day to the death of a newborn baby that through prayers at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe inspired the Paul Stefan Homes for Expectant Mothers . Father also addresses visions he has received that have lead to miraculous events all of which are supported by the witnesses themselves in subsequent chapters at the end of the book, titled “Testimonials.”
Writing in his book, Father Stefan uses Church history and tradition to help readers understand the concept of miracles in every day life. “Why are miracles important? We live in an unbelieving time. It is readily accepted that God worked miracles in the early Church to convert Pagan Rome and to establish his Church.”
“I personally believe that Jesus never intended his miracles to lessen or cease, but we slowly began to accept the idea that miracles are rare in the Church; they are usually associated with very holy men and women or holy places like Lourdes, France. With this belief, came a reduction in the number of miracles. Many people conclude that because I am not a saint, Jesus would not work a miracle through me. I believe that Jesus is once again moving his hand to work great signs and wonders among his people to awaken a skeptical age.” In reading Miracles: Healing for a Broken World, few will disagree.
