A Time to PurifyWhat is more painful than the pain and shock experienced at the death of a son or daughter? A Mothers Cry, the interview of Ethel Gardner by Fr. Mike, is a heart-wrenching but hopeful story. Born and raised in Cleveland with nine other siblings, Ethel had a tragic life filled with disappointments, rejection, and abandonment that left her hopeless. Through her younger sister, she came back to God only to find that not all her problems went away. She discovered that she had to go through a real process of transformation. The greatest tragedy of her life was the death of her son, at age 17, in an auto accident. He was a wonderful son, patient, kind, football player, and an all A student. He even fed the homeless in his spare time. He was everything to Ethel. She says: When he died, I died. She went through a devastating period when she was so angry with God. She couldnÂt pray or trust God any more. Then her life changed. Don't miss this emotional inspiring story of a mother who lived through the death of a son and ended up with strong hope that inspired her to reach out and help others.
