A JESUS ARMY member in Northampton has been healed from Hepatitis C.

Dennis Mulholland was diagnosed with the virus in 2001 and was due to start a lengthy treatment plan with bad side effects.

He and his friends in the Jesus Army prayed.

"I'm a born-again Christian" Dennis told the nurse. "My friends are praying. Can you do one more check before starting the treatment?" The nurse insisted that the virus would still be there and only the treatment would change that. But the check took place.

Following this, the hospital wrote to him saying that after a recent test they could find no trace of the disease.
