Pastor experiences angelic encounter that saved his life
Pastor John Boston was driving on Airport Road in Columbus, Ohio in 2015 when he got into a terrible car accident that sent a live transformer crashing into his car. Fox 8 Cleveland reported that he was trapped inside of the burning car as the windshield melted and the door folded shut. Boston said a stranger walked up, opened the door and removed him from the car to safety. The stranger told Boston his name was “Johnny” and that he had to leave the scene before first responders arrived because he “can’t be here when they get here.” He never saw Johnny again. Boston walked away with minor injuries and a stronger sense of determination to serve, after his miracle encounter with what he strongly believes was an angel.

An angelic nurse
Luke was diagnosed with bone cancer when he was just eight years old. During his two-week hospital stay to treat an infection, a nurse came into Luke’s hospital room. As he slept, his mom spoke with the nurse, who was wearing a 1960s work uniform which she thought was strange. The nurse told Luke’s mom she would pray for his healing before exiting. Luke fully healed of his infection and is now cancer free. According to Thought Co., both Luke and his mom believe the nurse, who was never seen again, was a guardian angel who offered them hope during a difficult time.
