I just recently talked with a mother of an alcoholic who shared some very heart wrenching stories. Let us pray for all struggling with alcoholism and this mother and her son in particular.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
 
As a recovering alcoholic myself I have to share this. I went to confession today for the first time in 30 years and I feel so great. I know it was the power of God that took away the horrible pain of alcoholism for me. I hope and pray always for the suffering alcoholic.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change
wisdom to change the things I can
and courage to know the difference.
 
I will say a prayer for him, I struggle with this disease daily, 180 days sober so far.
 
A MOST worthy prayer intention! I have had to endure the ravages of alcoholism in my house for years! He has been sober for the past 3 weeks!

Praying.
 
Holy Michael the Archangel defend us in the day of battle.
Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
by the Power of God,
thrust down to hell satan and all the wicked spirits,
who wander through the world for the ruin of souls.
Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession and was left forsaken. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, a sorrowful sinner. Despise not my words, O Mother of the Word, but in your mercy, hear and answer me.
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.
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now ever shall be world without end
Amen.

Lord, please grant many graces and powerful angelic help to those suffering from alcoholism, be it as a user or as one who deals with its detrimental effects. Especially cultivate in this mother and son graces for faith, hope, love, joy, temperance, and magnanimity. See that this and every occasion of their lives be ones in which they serve you and be drawn to your Sacred Heart, now, unto eternity. Raise them from the murk of this world and embolden and enkindle in their hearts the zeal of the Spirit, that they might always exercise the faith heroically and happily. Have mercy, Lord. Our Lady, angels, and saints, pray with us. Amen.
 
Praying for this mother and her son and for all who are struggling with alcoholism, that the Lord may strengthen them and guide them.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

I am definitely praying for alcoholics and the mother and son you have mentioned in your intention. I pray that they stay strong and perseverant in overcoming this addiction and seek God’s help by praying to Him.

Blessed art thou amongst women, and
Blessed is the Fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God,

May those who have turned to alcohol find their comfort in our Lord through prayer, return to the sacraments, and find truth and peace.
