My Daughter Is Talking to Me Again

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 for my daughter Hannah through your team back in September. We hadn't spoken in almost two years after a terrible argument over her moving away. The silence was breaking my heart. I asked St. Peter to help mend our family, to soften both our hearts. I carried the photo of the card in Rome with me in my prayer book. Last week, Hannah called me. She just started talking, like no time had passed. She said she missed me. We talked for an hour. It wasn't a big dramatic moment, just a quiet conversation, but it was everything. I don't know what changed her mind, but I'm so grateful she reached out. Thank you for carrying my prayer to that holy place. It gave me hope when I had very little.
