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 wanted to write to thank you. Last month, I sent a prayer for my own recovery after a difficult surgery. I have been dealing with a lot of pain and uncertainty. Having my prayer carried into St. Peter's gave me a sense of peace I hadn't felt in a long time. Since then, my recovery has been steady. The pain is less each week, and my strength is slowly returning. The doctor says I am progressing well. I don't know what the future holds, but I feel more hopeful. Thank you for this quiet, faithful service. Sincerely,
Send your own prayer in
