We've always known that miracles can be found outside the Church. But this is not your usual miracle. It occurred in an Amish community, eastern Tennessee, in late winter or early spring, 1996. It is recounted by Michelle Stewart, whom I know well enough to be sure her account is true as written. The nature of the miracle itself is not questionable. "Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind." This is not a miracle the demons could mimic.
Michelle Stewart was 14 years old when she witnessed this miracle. She includes a record of it in her new book: Judas Girl, pages 136 – 140. There are several facets of this incident worthy for us to ponder.
