Answered Prayers for Family and Marriage

Family Reconciliation After Years of Silence

Elara, Stillwater · August 31, 2025

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 sent a prayer with you a few months ago, asking for healing in my family. My daughter and I hadn't spoken in over four years. I asked your team to carry my prayer for a softening of hearts and a way forward. Last week, she called me out of the blue. We talked for over an hour. It wasn't perfect, but it was a start. Since then, we've texted a few times. The wall between us feels less solid. I don't know what the future holds, but I feel a peace I haven't known in a long time. Thank you for carrying my prayer to that holy place.
