Answered Prayers for Cancer

My Sister's Cancer Is in Remission

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 months ago asking you to carry a prayer for my sister, Greta. She had been diagnosed with a very aggressive form of cancer and we were all so frightened. I sent the prayer card to your team. Since then, the treatments have been very difficult for her, but she has been so brave. Last week, her doctors told us the cancer is in remission. We know the journey isn't over, but this news is a great blessing. Thank you for carrying our prayer. It gave me so much comfort to know it was there. With gratitude,
