Woman Dies; Back on a Big GLOBAL MISSION!

The Story
Michelle Turner, a 23-year-old wife, mother of two sons, and second-grade teacher, experienced her NDE during an endoscopy procedure in April 2005, amid congestive heart failure that affected her organs. She later died during defibrillator implant surgery on April 7 and was resuscitated after three shocks. During the NDE, she heard echoing laughter from people of all nationalities and ages in white robes sitting on gold pavement. Jesus held her like a newborn and told jokes to the crowd. She saw a silent crystal waterfall, large flawless trees, and inviting green grass, feeling complete peace without pain. Her grandmother placed a hand on her heart, then her grandfather instructed her to return to care for sons Rashad and Ahmad and do God's work. Back with Jesus, she examined his brass feet, gold-trimmed robe, and bright face. He asked if she would be crucified and a disciple; she agreed. He chose her to witness heaven's reality and sent her back with an angel. After the NDE, Turner prophesied powerfully, recovered quickly against doctors' predictions of vegetable state or three-month survival, and gained a stronger faith. She now shares her testimony, emphasizing fasting to empty oneself for God's use and purpose.
“God can fill you and be God on this earth because he needs a body to operate”
