Our Daughter Is Home and Healing

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 sent a prayer card for my daughter Elara back in July, when she was in a very dark place and had left home. I asked for her protection and for her to find her way back to us. Your team carried the prayer to St. Peter's, and I received the photograph. Just a few weeks ago, she called. She said she was tired and wanted to come home. She has been with us now for a month. She is quieter, but she is eating at our table again and talking with her father. The road ahead is still long, but having her home feels like a quiet miracle. Thank you for carrying our prayer when we felt so helpless. With gratitude,
