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 am writing to thank you and your team. I had you carry a prayer for my husband, Carl, who was facing surgery for colon cancer. The days were very long waiting for the results. I felt such peace knowing his name was being held in prayer at St. Peter's. The surgery went as well as the doctors could have hoped. The surgeon said they were able to remove everything they could see. His recovery has been steady, and his spirits are better than they have been in months. We are taking things one day at a time, but this good news has given us so much hope. Thank you for this quiet service.
