'This book isn't a manual on how to survive cancer or have your prayers heard . . . I've had five kids, been married twice, owned and lost a small business and a house. I've known what it is like to come close to death, and how to live again after that. I've been involved in the process of proving a miracle and making a saint. And I have discovered so much along the way . . . My hope is that you'll find some comfort from my story.'

Kathleen Evans was an ordinary woman from an ordinary suburb on the NSW central coast. Although a committed Catholic, she wasn't excessively pious and had even had a decade-long disagreement with her Church after her philandering husband divorced her.

Then in 1993, after finding love for the second time, Kath was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer; the diagnosis: terminal. She tried to make peace with her past and her God but was desperate to survive long enough to see her youngest son finish school. She and a group of supporters sent their prayers to Sister Mary MacKillop, one of our country's finest educators and founder of the Josephite nuns.

And Kath's prayers were answered.

Ten months after her diagnosis, X-rays revealed that Kath's cancer had vanished. She was completely cured, all without any medical intervention. Kath and her family, brimming with gratitude, went on the long crusade to see Mary canonised, making her Australia's first saint.

This story wears its Catholicism lightly; it tells of hope and redemption, and shows what can happen if you have a little faith.

All Kathleen Evans' royalties are donated to the Trustees of the Sisters of Saint Joseph.

  • Kath’s Miracle

    The love this woman had in her heart was inspiring, it was no wonder she had so many who loved her, it was no wonder she caught God’s attention. I am a seeker of truth, I am aware of the spirit world, I just do not have the love and the faith Kathleen had, I am also an admira of Saint Mary MacKillop, I truly hope these encounters are of ‘The true God’ I can only say these two ladies he used as his earthly representatives make me believe he just maybe. A truly uplifting book, just a little cautious of the Charismatic path she explored in it, I was glad that wasn’t huge in the book, it was all about a struggling family who eventually made it.
