Synopsis

When Episcopalian bishop, Henry Brougham, takes to his knees to pray for help raising money for a new church, his prayers are literally answered by affable undercover angel, Dudley. Though Henry suspects Dudley may be sweet for his wife, Julia, Dudley's intentions are angelically true, and he helps the couple reignite their spark as well as their Christmas Spirit.
