I emailed information about St Leonard to someone, and 2 days later, our friend was released from prison, put on probation without going to trial.... And the sentence was far less than what he and his lawyer had negotiated with the Crown. Only St. Leonard, and his ability to influence reform, the shackles did fall off, quite suddenly and unexpectedly. It is our Confidence that our friend will lead an honest and fulfilling life and our prayer that he will be protected from the enemy.
