Answered Prayers for Mental Health and Recovery

Peace Returned After a Long Darkness

Ansel, Eureka · April 12, 2024

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 to your team last autumn, asking for the intercession of St. Dymphna. It was for my own mind and spirit, which had been a place of constant fear and noise for years. I just wanted a moment of quiet, a way through. I mailed the card, and when the photograph came, I kept it on my desk. I cannot explain the change, only report it. The heavy dread began to lift, slowly. I am sleeping through the night now. I can sit in silence without the old panic. It feels like a space has been cleared inside me. I know the journey is not over, but I am on it. Thank you for carrying my prayer to that holy place. Sincerely,

Send your own prayer in
