THIRST = The Healing Initiative — Recovery, Spirituality, Twelve Steps
The words “I Thirst” are among the last words of Christ on the Cross.
St. Teresa said these words are a reminder that her Missionaries were there to, “quench the thirst of Jesus for souls, for love, for kindness, for compassion, for delicate love. “
Throughout time it is evident that souls express an undeniable thirst to know God as was recognized in Psalm 42: “As a deer longs for flowing streams, so longs my soul for thee, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.” — Psalm 42:1
I THIRST and Addiction
Addiction is a defining problem of society, with physiological, and mental health components which must be addressed. Ultimately, however, the desolation, the abandonment and the guilt which are all ‘hallmarks’ of the addicted life, are in many ways spiritual problems which require a spiritual remedy.
The I THIRST program seeks to provide this spiritual remedy to those suffering from addiction through the development and implementation of programs designed to educate and prevent, provide support to treatment facilities, and those incarcerated, and to develop an aftercare community for the afflicted and their families.
