My Anxiety Has Lifted

Dear Fr. Marco, I sent my prayer card to you several weeks ago. It was for my mental health—I had been struggling with intense anxiety that made it hard to leave my house. After you carried my prayer into St. Peter's, I felt a quiet change. The heavy feeling in my chest began to ease. I went for a walk, and then another. I've been able to return to work part-time. I still have difficult moments, but a great weight has been lifted. Thank you to you and your team for helping me carry my prayer to such a holy place.
