Diocese of Monterey, California, promotes cause of Mormon convert and purported stigmatist.
MENLO PARK, Calif. — When Catholics gather for Mass on Christmas Day this year, the readings for the liturgy will include one of the most famous and powerful passages from the Gospel of John: “And the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory, the glory as of the Father’s only Son, full of grace and truth.”
The passage affirms the coming of the Christ Child as the fulfillment of God’s plan for the salvation of the world. But it does not describe the Virgin Mary’s actual experience delivering her Divine Son in that rough stable in Bethlehem.
Catholics hungry for such details must look elsewhere, and one place to consider is The Refugee From Heaven, an “eyewitness account” of the story of Jesus written by Servant of God Cora Evans, a California resident and convert from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who became a mystic and stigmatist before her death in 1957.
The Refugee From Heaven describes St. Michael the Archangel tenderly creating a sanctuary for the Mother of God that allows her to receive the Son in private, prayerful union with the Father.
