A Christmas Eve miracle changed Ema McKinley’s life forever. McKinley grew up in a Christian home in Iowa, then moved to Minnesota where she worked with disabled people for many years. It was her passion and she loved her job. A tragic workplace accident in 1993 left her partially paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair. She suffered severe pain from a neurological disorder called Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) which left her neck and spine twisted. She suffered from this condition for over 18 years, all the while many doctors at the Mayo Clinic trying all types of treatments for her, but to no avail. All throughout her suffering, McKinley remained faithful, praising God through her pain and never losing hope or faith.

Finally, on Christmas Eve 2011, she experienced an amazing Christmas gift in the form of a divine intervention and a miraculous healing by Jesus. Today, after 18 years, much to the surprise and delight of her doctors, family and friends, Ema’s spine is straight, and she is out of the wheelchair, walking on her own! Watch her inspiring testimony as shared on The Christian Broadcasting Network CBN.
