Answered Prayers for Mental Health and Recovery
My husband is home, and the darkness has lifted

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 and your team, I sent a prayer for my husband, James. He had been in a deep depression for many months, and I felt so helpless watching him struggle. I asked for strength for him and for our family. I sent the prayer to you a few weeks ago. Since then, something has slowly shifted. He agreed to see a new doctor who has been very kind. He's started talking more, even smiling sometimes. He came back from his last appointment and said he felt like he could see a little light again. It feels like he is finally coming back to us. Thank you for carrying our prayer. It gave me a moment of peace when I felt I had none left.
