Singing in the Chapel
(Excerpt from Stories of Faith &
Miracles by Bernadine Asher,

Were there angels singing in the
Chapel? Before the Sanctuary of Hope Chapel was renovated, still dusty and empty, a
group of people had prayer in the Chapel. As everyone was leaving, Leah
Mullens heard beautiful singing. She thought it was the three women
standing by the altar rail but when she got near they were silent.
Theresa Best also heard the singing as she left that day. Tom
Schwarzenberger didn't hear it the first time, but when he and Leah
returned to the chapel and Tom prayed to hear it, he did. They would
hear singing and then it would be quiet. Tom and Leah communicated with
their hands and eyes as they heard the singing come and go to
acknowledge that they were hearing the same thing. Leah said, "It
was so beautiful! I’ll never forget it! I couldn’t understand the
words as they weren’t in English." Leah heard the singing several
other times but not since the chapel has been renovated
