My Tumor Has Shrunk After My Prayer Was Carried

Rhonda, Boise · September 13, 2026

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 and share some news. I sent a prayer card for my health, as I have been battling illness. After the card was carried in St. Peter's, I had a new scan. The doctors told me that my tumor has shrunk. It is a great relief. I know the journey is long, but this feels like a step forward, a moment of peace. Thank you for carrying my prayer. It meant a great deal to know it was there.
