Peace After Years of Discord
Althea, Bend · February 8, 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 sent a prayer for my brother and me. We had not spoken in nearly ten years over a disagreement about our mother's estate. The bitterness was heavy on my heart. I asked your team to carry my prayer for reconciliation, for a softening of both our hearts. I received the photo of the card in St. Peter's a few weeks ago. Last Sunday, my brother called me. He said he'd been thinking about me. We talked for an hour, and it wasn't about the past. It was just a conversation. It felt like a weight was lifted. The road is long, but a door has opened where there was only a wall. Thank you for helping me place this burden in a holy place. Sincerely
