Answered Prayers for Mental Health and Recovery

Hope and Peace After Darkness

Corbin, Boise · September 11, 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, I wanted to write to you after the prayer was carried to St. Peter's. I had asked you to carry a prayer for my mind, for the heavy despair I'd been carrying for so long. Things had been very dark. Sending that small card felt like my last reach for a little light. Since then, it hasn't been an instant change, but a slow softening. The mornings are a little easier to face. I have found a small measure of peace I didn't think was possible. I still go to my counselor, and I still have hard days, but the crushing weight feels a little less. Thank you to you and your team for the quiet comfort of carrying my prayer to that holy place. Sincerely,

Send your own prayer in
