Speaking in the build up to Temperence Sunday on Sunday 11, Spiritual Director of the Pioneers Fr Robert McCabe, said that the role of Faith in a person’s recovery from addiction is vital and offers consolation and guidance to those who are seeking long-term sobriety after treatment.
“Faith is one of the twelve steps,” he said. “The person turns themselves over to a higher power. Some of the will discover the gift of prayer during their treatment. They know that when they finish their course of treatment that they will be able to go into their own parish church and sit in meditation and reflection with their rosary beads and prayerbook.
Some of them discover the faith that their parents or grandparents might have been praying for them during their recovery.”
