TESTIMONIALS
“Once again Deacon Jack Sullivan has opened up for us his close relationship with St John Henry Newman, who has entered and changed his life in such a remarkable way. Now Jack also unfolds the wonder of intercessory prayer and the impact of the role of saints in the plan of God for each one of us. I hope many will be deeply touched by the accounts given in this book and, like Jack, will entrust themselves to the intercession of the saints, and to St John Henry Newman in particular. I thank Deacon Jack for this work of love and devotion.” – Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster, UK
“The Catechism of the Catholic Church reminds us that the saints share in the living tradition of prayer by the example of their lives. In his book When Heart speaks to Heart: My Ongoing Communion with St John Henry Cardinal Newman, Deacon Jack gives witness to this truth of faith through a deeply personal and moving account of his own encounter with God’s miraculous grace through the intercession of St John Henry Newman. Amid the numerous challenges that Deacon Jack has experienced on his journey of faith, his reliance and trust in the friendship of St John Henry Newman reveals evermore the profound beauty of the late Cardinal’s motto, Heart speaks to Heart – words which offer a greater insight and understanding as to the depths of God’s love, and which draws us further into our life with God. As Deacon Jack shares with us his remarkable stories of others who have also experienced God’s grace through the intercession of St John Henry Newman, these reflections remind us of our communion with the saints and their joyful witness to the presence of God for our world today.” – + Bernard Longley, Archbishop of Birmingham, UK
“Attributing powerful physical healings, including his own, to his communion with Cardinal Newman, in these pages, Deacon Jack will invite you into a heart-to-heart relationship with Jesus, through the holiness and sometimes miraculous intercession of St John Henry Newman.” – Robert P Reed, Auxiliary Bishop of Boston, President of the Catholic TV Network
“The history of our faith has many examples of those whom the Lord has chosen as his mouthpiece for the people of their day, quite often those who didn’t know why they were chosen, but who spoke profoundly of their encounter with the Lord. Deacon Jack Sullivan and his wife Carol have encountered the Lord in a very particular way through Jack’s healing through the intercession of Cardinal John Henry Newman. Deacon Jack has embraced this favor from the Lord and grown in love of the Lord through the ongoing Communion with St John Henry Newman. He has spent his life sharing the joy that this encounter has given him. To learn of the Lord’s goodness through a recipient of it is very special.” – Bishop Timothy Menezes, Bishop of the Archdiocese of Birmingham, UK
“It is rare indeed to find a book that can name and testify to such a full range of God’s loving action in the ordinariness and simplicity of everyday life, but this is such a book! The chapters are reflections, meditations, contemplations and finally conversations regarding the interaction of time and eternity. It speaks of the Lord’s election of Cardinal Newman to become the intercessor for Deacon Jack Sullivan’s prayers for healing and the mediator of God’s miracle in answer to those prayers. This begins their communion, and one that continues to bring healing, physical and spiritual, to numerous others as Deacon Jack evokes the intercession of St John Henry Newman on those who suffer.” – Bishop Arthur L. Kennedy, PHO, Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus, Archdiocese of Boston
