Answered Prayers for Cancer
A Peace That Came After the Diagnosis
Meredith, Duluth · September 5, 2023
This is the sender’s own account, sent to us after their prayer was carried in. It is not a promise that the same will happen for anyone else.
Dear Father Marco, I am writing to thank you. I sent a prayer for my sister, who was given a difficult diagnosis a few months ago. The fear was heavy on all of us. I asked your team to carry my prayer for her strength and for our family’s peace. A few weeks after I received the photograph from St. Peter's, something shifted. It is not that the medical situation has changed; her treatment is still long. But the fear has lifted. I can sleep again. She seems to have found a calm I haven't seen in her for years. It feels like we are being held. I believe your service carried our plea to a holy place, and for that quiet grace, I am so grateful. Thank you for this work.
