Our Son Came 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 carried a prayer for my son. He left home a few months ago after a difficult argument. We did not know where he was or if he was safe. The fear was heavy. I wrote his name on a card and sent it to your team.

Last week, on a Tuesday morning, he called. His voice was quiet. He said he was okay, and that he was sorry. He came home that evening. He is thin and tired, but he is here. He is sleeping in his old room.

I do not know why he called that day. I am just grateful that he did. Thank you for carrying our prayer. It was a small light to hold onto.

Peace, Mireille
