God of mercy, we bless You in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ,

Give Your strength to N., Your servant,
bound by the chains of addiction.
Enfold him/her in Your love

To those who care for them,
grant patient understanding and a love that perseveres.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Official Prayer for the Canonization of Blessed Matt Talbot

Lord, in your servant, Matt Talbot
You have given us a wonderful example of triumph over addiction,
of devotion to duty, and of lifelong reverence of the Holy Sacrament.
May his life of prayer and penance
give us courage to take up our crosses
and follow in the footsteps of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Father, if it be Your will that your beloved servant
should be glorified by your Church,
make known by your heavenly favours the power he enjoys in Your sight.
We ask this through the same Jesus Christ Our Lord.

Amen.
