Guardian Angel Flew Over the Franciscan's Car

Father John Bok OFM, 87, a retired physics teacher, escaped a major collision on October 2, feast of the Guardian Angels.

He was on his way to preside a Eucharist at St Andrew Church in Milford, Ohio when a young man driving a SUV near Bok had a seizure behind the wheel. His car went off-road, rammed an obstacle, went airborne over Bok’s car without touching it, and landed on all four wheels.

Bok told CatholicNewsAgency.com (1 November) that this was "a miracle". Being blind in his left eye and having poor hearing, he had mistaken the flying vehicle for a bird. It was only after the Eucharist that a police officer told him what had happened.

The video below was caught by a funeral home across the accident scene. The young man was not hurt.

This confirms Catholic theology of angels.

Our Lord works through the instrumentality of His Holy Angels - anyone doubting this is not Catholic - and is unfamiliar with the Scriptures.

@CatholicDoors A tad lower speed, a shade different angle of approach, a bit smaller poles, soft spots in the ground around the poles, or any very slight differences in the circumstances would likely have left the Priest with serious injuries.

But, of course, that's all just pure coincidence, and the situation had nothing to do with angels, and probably nothing to do at all with any kind of Divine intervention.

JUST PURE COINCIDENCE, and those are the FACTS. Thanks for setting us straight. (And thanks for blocking me, I wouldn't want a dissenting opinion to interfere with your insights.)
