The Third Miracle Page #2

We don't need to light candles,

all we do here is touch this and....

Helen loved this room.

She could watch

the children playing.

See the statue?

It was very dear to her.

-Living in a convent? A laywoman?

-She loved working with the kids.

Especially the problem kids.

Many nights, she had to work late...

and she liked being here for early

morning mass. It just made sense.

-That's her daughter. Roxane.

-I'd like to talk with her.

She's neither a practicing Catholic

nor a friend to our cause.

-It's your cause, Father, not ours.

-Not yet, you mean.

Father Panak, I'll decide whether

to recommend the case to Rome...

...and that doesn't happen often.

-Often?

Have you ever recommended

a case, Father Shore?

She was a soul elected by God.

-I'll talk to friends, enemies...

-She had no enemies.

-...read any journals and letters.

-She was practically illiterate.

She read the Bible a little.

She had to work at a very early age.

She had not much schooling.

You do know that she was

the child of poor immigrants.

I know that. From Ireland.

From Austria.

Her maiden name was Gabor.

Have you even opened the file?

I'll use this as my office.

Father, please. We've been praying

for this investigation for years.

I'll do my best for you.

You were a friend of Father

Falcone's, Brother Gregory?

Yes, l was. I talked

with him every night.

He was a great spiritual teacher

for me and for all these people.

-Is this where he drowned?

-His boat washed up over there.

Can you help me, please?

Sir, can you help me?

Please, help my son.

-Thanks for driving over, Doc.

-My pleasure.

-I don't mind talking about it.

-Kate Malloy.

Well, we went in there, had a quick

look around and sewed her back up.

The tumor was lodged in such a way

that to remove it was hopeless.

-So we sent her home.

-And she prayed to Father Falcone.

-She confessed with him for years.

-And the tumor, the next time?

What tumor? There wasn't even

scar tissue from the first time.

I don't call it a miracle. That's

not the word I use. I'm Jewish...

so I don't reaIIy beIieve in any

CathoIic miracIes. No offense.

Makes it a IittIe more convincing,

wouIdn't you say?

He doesn't even acknowIedge

our miracIes, but....

Not ''our miracIes'' yet, brother.

I know the process. I know it

requires more than one miracIe...

and there has to be proof of

heroic virtue to make a saint.

We don't make saints. God does.

Then He made Father FaIcone one.

-Thank you.

-Good morning, Father.

-You were at the Iake.

-Yes, Father.

-You couIdn't waIk or stand!

-I'm feeIing much better today.

Father Shore!

What happened to you?

What happened?

What happened to your son?
