Answered Prayers for Mental Health and Recovery

Peace After a Long Season of Anxiety

Elara, Bend · January 26, 2023

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 am writing to thank you and your team. Last month, I sent a prayer for my husband, who has carried a heavy burden of anxiety for many years. It was a prayer simply for his peace and rest. I asked you to carry it for us.

Since the prayer was taken to St. Peter’s, a quiet change has come. The constant tension in our home has eased. He is sleeping through the night again, something he hasn’t done in a very long time. He told me he feels a sense of calm he thought was lost.

I do not know what tomorrow holds, but I am grateful for this gift of peace today. Thank you for carrying our request to that holy place.

With gratitude,

Send your own prayer in
