Prayer Warriors Needed To Pray For Addicts

Visit the forum of this group.
Group created by YearningforGod

Many of us are somehow touched directly or inderectly by a life, a helpless soul who suffers from an addiction. It is very disheartening to feel impotent. Addictions come in many sorts of disguises and they hurt everyone involved. This group is here to ask for prayers and offer prayers for those bound by the chains of addiction. Let us pray together for them, for their families, their loved ones, and all else affected by this bondage.

GROUP UPDATES:

We invite you all to pray with us a novena to Saint Dymphna. Novena runs from Nov. 16 Wednesday - Nov. 24 Thursday.
Also, feel free to ask family members and friends to join us too.

Here's the novena prayer to Saint Dymphna.

St. Dymphna
Prayer...Lord God, Who has graciously chosen Saint Dymphna to be the patroness of those afflicted with mental and nervous disorders, and has caused her to be an inspiration and a symbol of charity to the thousands who invoke her intercession, grant through the prayers of this pure, youthful martyr, relief and consolation to all who suffer from these disturbances, and especially to those for whom we now pray.
(Here mention those for whom you wish to pray.)

We beg You to accept and grant the prayers of Saint Dymphna on our behalf. Grant to those we have particularly recommended patience in their sufferings and resignation to Your Divine Will. Fill them with hope and, if it is according to Your Divine Plan, bestow upon them the cure they so earnestly desire. Grant this through Christ Our Lord. Amen.

    Hello. Please say a prayer for my patience and for God's healing of my alcoholic husband. Two months ago he was very ill and the doctor told him to stop drinking or he'd be visiting with his widow next year. Well, he's back to drinking and I'm so afraid for him, for me, and for anyone struggling with an alcoholic spouse, family m ember or friend. PRAYER FOR THE ADDICTED

    God of mercy, we bless You in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, who ministered to all who come to Him. Give Your strength to ( N. ), Your servant, bound by the chains of addiction. Enfold him / her in Your love and restore him /her to the freedom of God's children. Lord, look with compassion on all those who have lost their health and freedom. Restore to them the assurance of Your unfailing mercy, and strengthen them in the work of recovery. To those who care for them, grant patient understanding and a love that perseveres. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

    PRAYER TO THE HOLY FACE OF JESUS

    Be merciful to us, O my God, and reject not our prayers, when amid our afflictions we call on Thy Holy Name and seek with love and confidence Thine adorable Face. Amen.

    Addiction and Recovery Prayers

    "The most deadly poison of our times is indifference. And this happens, although the praise of God should know no limits. Let us strive, therefore, to praise Him to the greatest extent of our powers."

    PATRON SAINT AGAINST DRUG ADDICTIONS
    Saint Maximillian Mary Kolbe
    (1894 - 1941)
    PRAYER to Saint Maximilian Maria Kolbe for Families and Friends of Someone Addicted to Drugs
    Saint Maximilian Maria Kolbe, your life of love and labor for souls was sacrificed amid the horrors of a concentration camp and hastened to its end by an injection of a deadly drug.
    Look with compassion upon ___________________ who is now entrapped in addiction to drugs and whom we now recommend to your powerful intercession.
    Having offered your own life to preserve that of a family man, we turn to you with trust, confident that you will understand and help.
    Obtain for us the grace never to withhold our love and understanding, nor to fail in persevering prayer that the enslaving bonds of addiction may be broken and that full health and freedom may be restored to him / her whom we love.
    We will never cease to be grateful to God who has helped us and heard your prayer for us. Amen.

    Recovery is a long road for the person recovering, and those that have been in the tangled mesh itself....may we all heal, in the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, who through His Grace and Mercy, we have faith and within this lies our hope.
