Read Online I Will See You in Heaven edition by Jack Wintz Religion Spirituality eBooks
Expanded edition of the original bestseller!
Friar Jack Wintz's bestselling book now includes readers' photos of their beloved four-footed companions who are waiting for them in heaven — where Friar Jack reassures us, with simple teachings from scripture and St. Francis of Assisi, we will see them again!
“Our God is a God of overflowing love, goodness, and beauty who is ready to give over everything to those he loves. This goodness is reflected in the whole family of creation. When God says of any creature, whether human or nonhuman, that it is good or very good, it’s not simply a matter of moral goodness. The creature also has an inherent goodness and beauty—a beauty that reflects God, who is Beauty itself.”
Cover photo Hollie Betzler (2001-2018), Michigan’s first grief therapy dog, served faithfully at her family’s funeral home and area nursing homes for 16 years, giving a comforting paw at just the right time to just the right person. Her family anticipates her serving the same role at the gates of heaven, where she now waits for them.

"I remember in my childhood home a framed cross-stich that read "Cats Are People Too," and as one who grew up with cats, horses, rabbits, and other animals, I believed it. I experienced the love and companionship of animals firsthand, so it was always hard for me to grasp the concept of a Heaven without the souls of the animals who helped raise me. If God gave each animal its own personality, likes, dislikes, and other traits, why would He not give them a soul? This book dispels the theory of soulless animals with direct evidence from the Bible to support its claim. Stories of Noah, Jonah, and St. Francis show us the love God shows his smallest creatures and His plan for them. Friar Jack Wintz even states, "Humans and other creatures are actually meant to help one another reach our common salvation."
Now for those who are looking for a book to speak directly to cat owners, this book appears to be the same as the original edition, save for some minor details, such as the cover and chapter decorations. The text encompasses all animals and does not single out cats. The only exception to this is Chapter 12 titled, "The Soul of a Cat." Again, the author mostly encompasses all forms of animals into this conversation.
If this book is intended as a gift, there is a presentation page in which the giver can write that it is in remembrance of an animal. At 102 easy pages, this book is a quick and comforting read for those who are mourning their lost animal friends. I bought it for myself to help me mourn my own loss, and it was very helpful."

I Will See You in Heaven edition by Jack Wintz Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
- This is a cute small book that can easily be read in one sitting. Long story short, some say that animals have no souls therefore they don't go to heaven. In this book, it's the total opposite! Dogs, cats, birds, etc. are all of Gods beautiful creations. Our deceased pets showed us LOVE and it was unconditional love that made it so pure and beautiful. This book put my mind at ease after I had to put my best friend down on Easter Sunday. I miss you, my gorgeous girl! Until we meet again...
- My favorite dog is 12, at this time, with multiple health problems. I know there are fewer days ahead of us than there are behind us. While Fr. Jack's writings have not stopped my fears and tears, he did change my way of thinking.
As a child, when my family's dog died while I was about 6-7, I asked my grandmother if she thought our dog was in heaven. She said "no" because animals do not have souls. I believed that for the next 45 years. I have no children, and have been divorced twice, so my dog is my only family. I have been praying so hard that I get to see him again. Then, I found this book. I am not Catholic, and have no affinity for Catholic saints, but I am Born Again. This book provides very coherent reasoning why all of creation will continue in paradise Man is the only creature created on earth guilty of sin, and the Bible is God's handbook for Man. Salvation is meant for humans because we are the ones headed to Hell without it.
I still have questions about some animals (fish, because the new earth will not have seas, and protozoa...what about them?), and I would love to meet the author one day and ask him, but this book has provided the first glimmer of hope for me. Faith will have to carry on from there.
If you are hurting over the loss of a beloved animal, read this. It helped me so much! - It's been five weeks since my baby died. For twelve years he loved me. He was loyal and he would always follow me from room to room. Of all God's creatures, I love dogs. This book helps to heal the pain when losing a beloved dog.
- This little book explained so simply that God created animals to help us and keep us company all the days of their lives. God would not create something so loving and faithful and then let it disappear when it's life had come to an end. I learned and I believe I will see my beautiful and faithful Sedona in Heaven. She just got there before me that's all. Please read this small, wonderful book and keep the scriptures in your heart.
- After losing my best friend, Sylvester, about a week-and-a-half ago, I began reading many of my cat books that I had put off seeing that many of them end up with the passing of beloved feline. This book was the first one I dived into.
The book is short, but to the point, and provides numerous examples of where Scripture clearly proves God also loves the animals of this world and they will be a part of the new Heaven and new earth.
Friar Jack Wintz's book is a tremendous blessing for anyone who has lost a beloved cat or dog. It truly has been a blessing for me. Someday, I will see my buddy, Sylvester, in Heaven! - I bought this as a gift for a friend a few days after her cat died, and she has been comforted by it. I also got the original version for myself. Both are similar (I read both to compare). They are written by Father Jack Wintz, so it does focus on the Catholic perspective. It is not a lengthy book (about 110 pages), and an easy read. It gives a hopeful viewpoint on a difficult topic. I hope this has helped. Thank you.

At 102 easy pages, this book is a quick and comforting read for those who are mourning their lost animal friends. I bought it for myself to help me mourn my own loss, and it was very helpful. - I wanted to love this book. I lost a dog who could best be described as my soul mate. Devastation is an understatement. This book claimed to prove that I would see him in heaven. I wish it did. The premise is basically that God made dogs and they are good, so dogs will go to heaven. There's a bit more, but that's the gist of it. I needed more. The author is a member of the clergy and writes from his point of view, which is fine. I already believed what he wrote, and was hoping for a reassuring perspective other than my own. I didn't find it. Sorry. I still believe I will see him again, but I sure wish I could have absolutely no little lingering doubts because of the unknown.
