Recovery Sunday

THE 11th ANNIVERSARY OF RECOVERY SUNDAY
SEPTEMBER 13TH 2009

All parishes in the Archdiocese of New York will hold an annual day of prayer for all those struggling with, and in recovery from addictive illnesses. Let us also call upon our Lady of Fatima to help in finding a cure for these many different forms of addiction, especially since September 13 will be the 92nd Anniversary of the 5th Apparition of Our Lady of Fatima.

Recovery Sunday was inaugurated in 1999 by Cardinal O’Connor and continues now under the leadership and direction of Archbishop Dolan.

It seems that No family today has not had a family member or close family friend or know of a personal friend who has not suffered from this illness.

Let our prayers offer those whom are afflicted a message of hope.

If you would like to help join us in starting a National Movement to find a cure while also making the public aware that this has become the Number One Illness in the World then please contact us at fatimaprayers@gmail.com. The lack of world research and the financial cost to society exceeds that of any other illness.

Many of our children and loved ones are being led to their untimely death by our present 24/7 culture of violence, death and drugs. The media begins indoctrinating our youth from the moment they begin to watch TV or listen to music.

Presently there are numerous members of the medical society that believe there is a gene that is triggered in certain individuals that causes them to be unable to stop their excessive addiction which will then led to their premature death.

Many treatment programs offer various types of treatment and yet most have a very limited success rate. Present research data indicates that perhaps 85% of the afflicted population simply succumb to their illness.

Please offer your prayers that the research scientists and members of the medical field will find a cure as they our guided by Divine Intervention.
