Our Marriage Was Saved and Is Stronger Now

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 last year to carry a prayer for my marriage. My husband had moved out and we were barely speaking. I was praying for reconciliation and for the hardness in both our hearts to soften. I had the card made for our wedding anniversary. After you sent the photo from St. Peter's, I just kept praying that prayer every day. I didn't tell him about it. A few weeks later, he called and asked to meet for coffee. We started talking again, slowly. It's been a long road, but he moved back home six months ago. We're going to counseling and we're trying, really trying. It's not perfect, but there is love and patience where there was only anger before. I believe our prayers were heard. Thank you to you and your team for carrying mine into that holy place.
