St. Anthony of Padua Parish will welcome Artie Boyle to St. Anne Church, 299 Main St. in Gorham, on Thursday, April 10, at 6 p.m. Artie was given six months to live, but God had other plans. Come hear his incredible testimony of healing, faith and hope. Don’t miss this opportunity for a life-changing experience.
In the year 1999, Artie was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) that spread to his lungs. The doctors gave him a less than 5% chance for survival. At the urging of two dear friends, he went to Medjugorje, Bosnia-Hercegovina, an apparition site of the Blessed Virgin Mary that began in 1981. It was in Medjugorje that Artie believes he was healed by Jesus through the intercession of Mary and by way of the sacrament of reconciliation and the power of forgiveness.
