I slowed the video down and went frame by frame, and sure enough, the angel is there under the front of the car until the priest is beyond danger. Why else would a car jump into the air like that after hitting just a small obstruction, I thought. Bruce McKay

 

Eighty-seven-year-old Father John Bok, OFM, escaped a major collision on Oct. 2, 2022, in Milford, Ohio, when an SUV went airborne and flew over his car. Now retired — although he considers himself “semi” retired — Bok still helps to serve Mass at St. Andrew Catholic Church. On Oct. 2, he was on his way to celebrate 9 a.m. Mass on the Feast of the Guardian Angels. It was about 8:40 a.m. when Bok was nearing the church. That’s when something went wrong with another driver.
