The Christmas Miracle

I met a homeless man when I was in Maui and thought to myself, this could be someone I love and they needed help! So, I invited him to my nieces birthday party on the beach and gave him some clothes and money.

His name was Greg and he lived in a cave because he was getting beat up and had his things stolen in the shelter. He had amnesia and had no memory about his life at all!!

As I live in Ohio and was only in Maui to help my brother who’d been in an accident, I had to fly home, but I told Greg that people would help him and introduced him to the Pastor of my sister’s church.

At Christmas, my sister Kathy called me all excited and told me her Pastor called her and told her a miracle had happened and I was the one who started it. They found out that Greg had been missing for 15 years and ended up finding his family in Oregon. They bought him an airplane ticket so he could go home and the Maui newspaper did a front page story about Greg and titled it the Christmas Miracle. 

My sister sent me a copy of the newspaper with Greg’s photo and it was a wonderful gift to know that Greg was with his family again. His mother was a missionary and Greg had children and grandchildren. – Barb ❤
