An Unexpected Journey Nancy Flanders

Publisher Marketing: During my life, my work was varied. I worked at accounting/bookkeeping, having my own ABS business and I also worked at Our Lady of Calvary Retreat House for many years where I was involved with counseling and spiritual direction and other duties until the Sisters appointed me supervisor of the House. I worked with the Fathers at Holy Family Monastery and in the office of communications for the Archdiocese of Hartford and on the televised Mass and then I became a Eucharistic Minister where I worked at Hartford Hospital and St. Mary's Home for many years. Being married to my husband for almost 40 years before he passed on, we had three beautiful children, two sons and a daughter. I had many friends, religious friends included, through the years. One priest friend that I knew kept encouraging me to "write this down." I had only discussed these matters with my spiritual director and could not believe this priest was drawing all this information out of me. I never even told my best friend, Sister Bernard Mary about these Heavenly Gifts that I was receiving through the years and we had known each other since my teenage years! I really hesitated about writing this book until Our Blessed Mother Mary appeared to me and told me to "Glorify our Lord" and even then I kept wondering if I was doing the right thing or not. Hopefully, this little book will be the answer to Her request.
