Prayer Service & Rosary for Addiction

Addiction is not only a physical or psychological disease, but a Spiritual disease. With God, all things are possible; without God, we can do nothing. Perhaps no one knows or understands this quite like someone struggling with substance abuse disorder or addiction and those who love them. Every month, we pray for those who are struggling with this disease and those who love them. Addiction and substance abuse can be a stark reminder of our own struggles, weaknesses, and failings, and that it is only in, with, and through God that we overcome them and are healed. Join us on Wednesday, June 24th, at 6:00 pm in the church (30 Main Street, South Hadley, MA 01075) as we pray for all those suffering with this illness and those who love them. All Are Welcome.
