DR. GLORIA POLO: view her story of Judgement and Conversion as told firsthand on Sunday, March 2 at 3:00pm at Mary Queen of Peace! Dr. Gloria Polo was an orthodontist living in Columbia when she was struck by lightning on May 5, 1995 and had a near death experience. She was judged by Jesus and condemned for mortal sin; she went to the gates of heaven and hell. Her story is said to be an inspiration to many and increases their faith in Christ. Jesus granted her a second chance with a mission to repeat what she witnessed not only a thousand times, but a thousand times a thousand. When she goes before Jesus to be judged again, she will be judged with greater severity because of her second chance and all that she saw during her experience. Dr. Polo's story shows that God is always ready to welcome people back into His grace.
