Prayer for the Victims of Addiction

O blessed Lord, you ministered to all who came to you: Look with compassion upon all who through addiction have lost their health and freedom. Restore to them the assurance of your unfailing mercy; remove from them the fears that beset them; strengthen them in the work of their recovery; and to those who care for them give patient understanding and persevering love. Amen.

—Prayer 56 Episcopal Book of Common Prayer

In addition to the beautiful Prayer for the Victims of Addiction found in the BCP, these 12 Step Intercessions make a nice addition to Church Services celebrating Recovery Sunday.
