Peace After a Very Dark Year

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 through your team back in March for my mental health. I was carrying heavy anxiety and fear after losing my job and my father in the same month. The darkness felt endless. Knowing my written prayer was taken to St. Peter's gave me a small point of light to hold onto. It was a simple plea for the strength to endure. Since then, with time and support, the weight has begun to lift. The panic attacks have stopped. I still have hard days, but there is a quietness in my heart now that I hadn't felt in over a year. I can sleep through the night. Thank you for your service, for helping me send that intention to a holy place. It meant more than I can say.
