Answered Prayers for Family and Marriage
Restoration After a Long Separation
Elara, Bend · December 16, 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 wrote in October asking you to carry a prayer for my marriage. My husband and I had been separated for over a year. I sent a prayer card for reconciliation, for a softening of hearts and a path forward. Since the card was carried in St. Peter's, we have started speaking again. It has been slow and difficult, but last week he agreed to come to counseling with me. I don't know what will happen, but this feels like a door has opened that was firmly shut. I am so grateful to you and your team for carrying my prayer during that hard time. Thank you for this quiet, steady service.
