Answered Prayers for Family and Marriage
Our Marriage Saved After Many Years of Struggle
Elara, Bend · October 18, 2020
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 earlier this year to carry a prayer for my marriage. My husband and I had been living like strangers under the same roof for nearly a decade. The silence between us felt heavier than any argument. I asked your team to carry my plea for healing, for the grace to see each other again with kindness. After the card went to St. Peter's, I felt a strange sense of peace. Not that anything changed immediately. But I kept the photo you sent on my dresser. Then, slowly, my husband started talking again. Small things at first. Now we are in counseling and finding our way back. The coldness is gone. I do not know how it happened, only that it did. Thank you for carrying my prayer when I had no words left.
Yours faithfully,
Send your own prayer in
