There is a very good article in the National Catholic Register about a Catholic program to address addictions. The iTHIRST Initiative (The Healing Initiative: Recovery, Spirituality and Twelve Steps) is a program offering spiritual accompaniment for those struggling with addictions. The article is right here: Aiding the Addicted: Healing Hearts and Souls Through Spiritual Accompaniment in the National Catholic Register

The article mentions a Fr. Michael Champagne. I met him once, back in 2012 at an Into The Wild Weekend experiential retreat. He was the chaplain. His preaching was incredible. “True doctrine issued from his mouth.”

Are you a creative Catholic? "The Catholicpunk Manifesto" is my new book exhorting Catholics to apply their faith to change the culture for the better!

Know someone, perhaps yourself, who might like Catholic devotionals for alcoholics? Please take a look at my books! "The Stations of the Cross for Alcoholics" and "The Recovery Rosary: Reflections for Alcoholics and Addicts" (Thank you!!)
