Answered Prayers for Mental Health and Recovery

Finding Peace in the Darkest Days of Depression

Ansel, Tacoma · July 29, 2020

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 and your team, I sent a Holy Card with a prayer for my own mental health. I was in a very deep depression, and it felt like I was carrying a heavy weight every single day. After you carried my prayer into St. Peter's, I decided to keep going to my therapist, something I almost stopped. I started being able to sleep a little better. The heavy feeling began to lighten, just a bit. I am not 'cured,' but I have found a peace I didn't think was possible. I can get out of bed now. Thank you for carrying my quiet, tired prayer.

Sincerely,

Send your own prayer in
