Answered Prayers for Family and Marriage
My Son Returned Home Safely

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 asking for prayers for my son, Gareth, who had been travelling and had lost contact with us for several weeks. The worry was heavy on my heart. I sent the prayer for his safety and for peace for our family to your team. Just ten days after you carried my prayer card in St. Peter's, I received a phone call. It was Gareth. He was safe in another country; his phone had been stolen, and he'd had trouble getting a new one. He is home with us now. The relief is immense. It feels like a weight has been lifted. Thank you for taking our prayer to that holy place.
