Answered Prayers for Healing and Surgery
Peace After the Operation
Elara, Boise · September 26, 2025
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 wanted to write to you about my husband, Mark. I asked you to carry a prayer for him as he went in for major heart surgery. The doctors said it was very serious. I sent the prayer the week before his operation. Since he came home from the hospital, his recovery has been steady. He is getting stronger every day, and the fear we both felt has been replaced by a quiet peace. I don't know what the future holds, but I am so grateful that my prayer was placed in St. Peter's. I felt less alone knowing it was there. Thank you for what your team does.
