" There is no reason why we should be working together. We were brought together over 2,932 km or 1,831 miles, from two seperate cultures, two different countries, two seperate worlds, and decades apart to minister together through an amazing plan of God's that only we could describe as " miraculous. "
+ Bishop Ronald M. Gilmore -
We are two people brought together by Divine Action!
It all began when Bishop Gilmore invited Jacqueline Loh to the Diocese of Dodge City, Kansas to pray for a priest who was suffering from severe mental/spiritual illness. Reluctantly, she met him on the July 1-4th holiday weekend in 2003 and prayed for him over those days.
Miraculously, he recovered over the next months and eventually was able to go back to serve in his priestly duties. At the same time, Jacqueline's spiritual director was promoted to another position in San Francisco. Needing another director fast, she asked Bishop Gilmore if he would consider this role for her. It took him a long while to say ' yes ' because of his Bishop duties, and then it took even longer for her to receive his letter in the mail. ( nail biting times.)
Thank you Father Michael Sweeney O.P. for bringing us together in 2003.

She has also offered direction to the likes of the late Cardinal Francis George and many other Bishops.

.... many souls were touched.
"....practically everyone in attendance took the opportunity to spend time with Jacqueline in prayer and Bishop Gilmore in confession. Many souls were touched and led closer to Christ! I would recommend Grace that Reigns Ministry of Healing to other pastors seeking to help lead their congregations to a place of healing and a renewed sense of wonder! "
