My Son is Coming Back to Life After Depression
Elara, Bend · April 4, 2022
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 son who has been in a deep depression for nearly two years. I asked that he might find a way back to the light and remember he is loved. Since you carried that prayer to St. Peter's, I have seen small but real changes. He started joining us for dinner again last week. Yesterday, he went for a walk on his own for the first time in months. It feels like a heavy blanket is slowly being lifted. There is a long road ahead, but I feel a peace I haven't felt in a long time. Thank you for carrying my hope to that holy place when I had so little left. Bless you for this quiet work.
