Prayer to Reduce Alcohol Consumption
Behold me, O my God, at thy feet!
I do not deserve mercy, but O, my Redeemer, the blood which thou hast shed for me encourages me and obliges me to hope for it.
How often have
I offended thee, repented, and yet have I again fallen and been drinking too much again.
O my God, I wish to amend, and in order to be faithful to thee, I will place all my confidence in thee. I will, whenever I am tempted, instantly have recourse to thee.
Hitherto, I have trusted in my own promises and resolutions and have neglected to recommend myself to thee in my temptations. This has been the cause of my repeated failures.
From this day forward, be thou, O Lord, my strength, and thus shall I be able to do all things, for “I can do all things in Him who strengtheneth me”.
Amen.

Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.
Amen.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Prayer for a Miracle
God of all creation, you who spoke a simple command and brought forth light from
the darkness, I ask you now to send forth your miracle-working power to heal SIL. You cleansed the lepers, opened the eyes of the blind and by
speaking a simple command, you empowered the crippled to rise up and walk.
You sent forth your life-giving power to all those in need, including those you raised from
the dead. I ask you to send forth your healing power into SIL’s body and give him the strength to fight his illness. I ask this through my Lord, Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen
For Help in Trials
Most holy apostle St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered your beloved Master into the hands of His enemies has caused you to be forgotten by many. But the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of hopeless cases–of things despaired of. Pray for me who feels so hopeless. Make use, I implore you, of that particular privilege accorded to you of bringing visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired of. Come to my assistance in this great need, that I may receive the consolations and succor of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations and sufferings, in particular SIL, and that I may bless God with you and all the elect throughout eternity. I promise you, O Blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, and I will never cease to honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to do all in my power to encourage devotion to you. Amen

Lord Jesus, you said:
“I have come to set the captives free”.
RC is captive and needs your healing touch.
Free RC, Lord, from his or her addiction, so
that he or she will be:
Free from the cares and worries that stifle
his or her happiness;
Free from sins that cling to him or her, and to
which he or she clings;
Free from all compulsive behavior that prevents
him or her from becoming what you, Lord, have
planned for him or her;
Bring RC loving Savior, to the experience
of abundant life which you promised.
I ask this through your name, Lord, Jesus,
Amen
