Answered Prayers for Family and Marriage
My Daughter is Coming Home

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 card for my daughter who had been estranged from our family for nearly two years. The silence was the hardest part. I asked your team to carry my prayer, that the walls she had built around her heart might soften. Shortly after receiving the photograph of the card in St. Peter's, I received a text message from her. It was just a simple 'Hello, Mom.' We've been talking regularly since then. She's coming for a visit next month. I don't know what changed her mind, but I am so grateful my prayer was heard. Thank you for helping me carry it.
