The saint that was spoken of at Forest Lawn was; Father Aloysius Ellacuria, C.M.F. who was staying at the Claretion Center in Los Angeles. Leonora told me this. She serves at the Mosoleum where Yogananda's body rests. She is the one that had her daughter healed in my story.

i talked with her today since she works Mondays. She told me about the Crypt where Micheal Jackson lays which is in the same building where Yogananda is. She said that people come all over the world to see Jackson's burial place but it is denied to them. They come with flowers and try to sneak in the area where he is placed. This has been putting a lot of stress on Forest Lawn.

i told Leonora about 'my' miracle and she said that it was because i was focused and emptied my thoughts that i recieved such a blessing. It seems that she had some spiritual insights of her own. She gave me an article about Padre Pio which i read right after being there a good part of the afternoon and wondering (worrying?) if i should not get back to 'my business'. In the article Padre Pio councils us to show the sincerity of our trust by working hard at not worrying. "It's a big order. We tend to push the panic button, to look at the things that can go wrong. We worry like mad." (Father Apostoli)

And worry may signal that we're trying to take control of matters that belong to God. "if I really believe God does love me and truly will take care of me. I should not worry," concludes Father Apostoli. As St. Pio himself put it: "The Lord is a father. He cannot fail to be moved when his children appeal to him."
