In an earlier post today, I mentioned that I was binging on Mother Angelica episodes on EWTN. I had to go to their YouTube Channel for something and while scrolling through their offerings, I found this gem:

It’s a story about how someone was miraculously healed from alcoholism through the intercession of the founder of the Knights of Columbus. The man’s aunt (if I recall correctly) had fervently prayed to Blessed Michael McGivney. It helps that the aunt and the beneficiary are relatives of McGivney (he’s a great uncle or somesuch connection) so it’s a family affair! 

It pays to have relations in high places. Anyway, you can add Bl. Michael McGivney to the list of possible intercessors for your (or a loved one’s) alcoholism.

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!!)
