My Husband Returned Home After a Year Apart

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 wrote to you last autumn asking you to carry my prayer for my marriage. My husband had left, and I didn't know if he would ever come back. The silence was so hard. After you sent the photograph of my card from St. Peter's, I just kept praying. I held onto that small bit of hope. Last month, he called. He said he was ready to talk. It has been a slow process, but he is home now. We are working through things day by day. Thank you for your team's kindness in carrying my prayer to that holy place. It felt like a lifeline when I needed one most. Sincerely,
