Answered Prayers for Healing and Surgery

A Peace That Surprised My Doctor

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 Fr. Marco, I wrote to you some weeks ago to carry a prayer for my aunt Cecilia, who was facing a serious surgery. The worry was heavy on my heart. I received the photograph of the prayer card and felt a small comfort. Since then, my aunt has had her operation. The doctors said everything went as well as could be hoped. But more than that, she has told me she feels a deep sense of peace about her recovery. For myself, the waiting was easier than I expected. Thank you for your team's quiet work.
