The first letter is from New York.

Dear Father,

I requested a Votive Light through the Association for my friend who was in the hospital suffering with many problems. She has since been released and is recuperating at home. I know our Blessed Mother had a hand in her recovery. We are grateful for her intercession.

The second letter is from Connecticut.

Dear Father,

Since I was a little girl, I had a Miraculous Medal hidden in my jewelry box. I really didn’t know it was a Miraculous Medal until I read about Saint Catherine Labouré. It was then I realized that what my grandmother had given me was a Miraculous Medal. I decided to pray the Miraculous Medal Novena because I’ve suffered with anxiety my entire life. Lately, I’ve been struggling with resentment, anxiety, and a general feeling that I don’t have a purpose in this life. After putting on the Miraculous Medal and praying the novena, I felt a sense of clarity about my life. My anxiety and depression have been replaced with a new sense of hope, stronger faith, and love. Clearly this was not my own doing. I was also able to forgive two people who had hurt me, and not only that, I enjoy their company now! Thank you Blessed Mother for listening to my prayers and for your intercession on my behalf. Thank you Jesus for filling my heart with more of you and less of me.
