Dear Fr. Marco, I wrote to you earlier this month asking for prayers for my mother, Anna. She had been struggling with a long illness, and I was so worried. I sent her name to your team, asking for comfort and strength for her. She passed away last week, but not in the way I feared. Her last days were strangely quiet, and she seemed to find a real peace. She was not afraid. I believe your prayers carried that peace to her. Thank you for doing this work. It meant more than I can say.
