This week on CNA Newsroom: the story of Michigan grandfather Irving “Francis” Houle. Irving received the stigmata— the wounds of Christ on the cross— and he could one day be officially recognized as a saint in the Catholic Church. This is a story of intense pain, but also miraculous healing - for Irving and for others.

For more information about the Irving C. “Francis” Houle Association, email Deacon Terry Saunders at tjsaunders1955[at]gmail.com or send a letter to 709 1st Ave South Escanaba, MI 49829.
