Father Malachy's Miracle
SKU: 978-1685950095
Product Details
By Bruce Marshall
Father Malachy Murdoch has wrought a miracle. One ordinary-seeming Saturday night in Edinburgh, the “Garden of Eden” dance-hall is doing a very brisk business, when the answer to Father Malachy’s prayer arrives all of a sudden: the building and its inhabitants are removed to the island of Bass Rock. The consequences of this miracle seemingly know no bounds. The media, the clergy, the scientists, the general public all converge in seeking an explanation, whether material or spiritual, as to how this event could have transpired. At the center of the controversy and chaos calmly stands Father Malachy, disdaining both the crass excesses of the world and the pusillanimous explications found even among Christians, and laying claim to the the simple saving grace of God for his wandering sheep.
Brought, at long last, back into print, Father Malachy’s Miracle is just as clever, comedic, and downright enjoyable as the day it first unassumingly appeared as “a heavenly story with an earthly meaning.”

We love to make you smile! 😊
I've purchased several items from you folks. The quality is unbelievable and the service matches that quality. The prices are so much lower than a standard jewelry store and again the quality is way better. They are outstanding as a gift. Thank you all.
Purchased a rosary for my nephew's confirmation. I had some questions along the way and customer service was very receptive and kind... Hard to find such good customer service these days. It was very refreshing and very much appreciated!
I have ordered a few things from Catholic Shop, including medals with engraving and candles. As for the medals and engraving, super job and very well made and dear to my heart. I can not say enough about Catholic Shop, their customer service and guarantee.
