Dear Father,

Thank you for taking the time to answer my letter requesting prayers for our son who was searching for a job. And thank you for your prayers that he return to his faith.

The months have slipped by, but I hope you will join us in our thanksgiving that some of our prayers were finally answered. My son received a written offer for a position plus a relocation package.

We are so thrilled. It has been a long difficult year. I wish I could say he is attending church regularly and found a strong faith, but not yet. At least when I mention God and praying, he doesn't brush me off. He does listen. We are also thrilled that he will be moving within two hours of our home, back into the Washington, D.C. area.

It is interesting that my prayers to the Blessed Mother for my son have deepened my own faith in the goodness of God.

The second letter is from Wisconsin.

Dear Father,

Thanks for praying for us. I gave birth to twins late last fall. We are so grateful to God that our twins were healthy and were able to go back home with me.

Thanks to God for everything he has given us. We pray often to Mother Mary and Saint Joseph requesting their intercession.

My mother came from Indonesia to help me care for our twins, and she came through her flights and customs without any problems. Everything went smoothly.

Thank you again Father.
