My Story and why I placed a cache here:I was sick and waiting to die or get a Kidney Transplant in Lehigh Valley Hospital! And In the middle of the night this guy dressed in a brown robe with grayish beard kept waking me up and saying.."It's not time yet,we're not ready for you".
I asked the nurse not to be bothered except for family and this guy keeps coming in and waking me up for last five nights! She said "NO ONE has been in your room or on the floor"! WAS I DREAMING??????
A week later I received the Kidney Transplant so desperatly needed. 10/13/96
3 weeks later my mom was going to take me to this new Shrine she heard of down in Barto,Pa.
I was first to walk in and saw the large picture of the saint on the wall and was "SHOCKED" when I saw it!
MOM!.... COME HERE QUICK!!!!.... This is the guy who kept waking me up in bed at the hospital!!!!!!!!!!!
It was SAINT PADRE PIO!
I was down on Sunday with her(11/13/05) And was compelled to put a cache here and tell my story!
Neat place to contemplate life! check it out! All ARE WELCOME!
And if your not into the shrine;It's a quick cache and dash to fill the needs!
ThankX;SCLAVE
PS: In the GIFT shop they have one of Padre Pio's blood stained gloves incased in glass! You have to ask the clerk for it,and put it on that part of your body that needs healing! Many people have had a healing and left their crutches,canes,braces and wheelchairs behind and numerous other healings unaccounted for or untold! Alot of them by non christians!
With a heavy heart I must report the passing of Sclave(Robert Davis) 3/16/15 I am hoping to find the person who has been doing maintenance on this and the other nearby cache as I do not want these caches to go away. They meant too much to him.
