Flight
of Faith : My Miracle on the Hudson
By: Fred Berretta
Flight
of Faith : My Miracle on the Hudson. Plunged into the icy waters of the Hudson...God
spared Fred Berretta's life in an instant -- and changed his heart forever.
Fred Berretta was an amateur pilot himself, so when U.S. Airways Flight 1549
struck a flock of geese and lost both engines, minutes after takeoff from Laguardia
Airport on that fateful afternoon of January 15, 2009, he knew before most of
his fellow passengers that something was seriously wrong. As the roar of the
jets quieted and the aircraft ceased to climb, as the pilot guided the powerless
plane towards a desperate crash landing and announced, "Brace for impact,"
Berretta fingered the prayer book in his pocket and tried to prepare himself
for death.
A multitude of thoughts flooded his mind all at once. He reminded himself that
the odds of surviving a water landing were slim to none. He thought of his wife
and his four children, and how they would miss him. He remembered he had just
been to confession and to Mass, and he wondered if his soul would be ready to
meet the Lord. And he knew he had to pray.
"God, please be merciful to us, for the sake of your Son," he whispered.
"Please spare us. I trust in you. Jesus, I trust in you. Mother of God,
please pray for us."
At that very instant, Berretta felt a "push" or "nudge"
on his conscience; a state of awareness he'd never before experienced; and a
keen realization that he had to do something. But what? Then God's voice sounded
strong and clear in the depths of his soul:
Are you going to accept My will for your life?
For Fred Berretta, the events of January 15, 2009 were the crystallizing moment
of a lifetime of conversion. In these pages he tells how he lost his childhood
Catholic faith and embraced a secular, sinful life, how he suffered through
family turmoil and the death of a child, and how by God's grace he slowly returned
to His presence, humbled and grateful. And finally, how God used the "Miracle
on the Hudson" to confirm him in his faith and set him on fire to share
it with others. Flight of Faith is the inspiring true story of how God works
in our lives in ways both simple and extraordinary. No. SB0107. (ISBN: 978-1-935302-30-8)
