Praise Glory and Thanks to our Lord and Jesus Christ for protecting and saving my neice Joann, during a horriffic accident.

Having finished her exams she and her friends headed by bus for a short holiday to Goa, when on the way the bus skidded and rolled down the cliff some 25feet, and landed midway on its back having got stuck between two rocks, thereby cutting short also the fall down a more deeper valley. Joann who was sitting near the window almost got throw out when the window broke whilst tumbling down, but her friend who had the presence of mind grabbed her and held her in place.

Praise be to God no one in the bus died, however some were very badly injured.

Joann escaped with a few cuts, scrapes and some glass pieces in her forehead (though not very serious) She also had a small glass piece in her eye and a bump in her head. Her friend Anelee has her leg fractured. They have all been checked and take care of in Panjim, and now retured to Bombay by flight.

This miraculous escape is all due to the protection of our Lord as her mother having a bad feeling about the trip prayed the Cross Prayer and Divine Mercy for her and all the people travelling on the bus.

Praise and thanks be to God for his loving mercy and protection.
