About the author About the book
If you or your loved one suffers from the disease of drunkenness and cannot do anything about it, the akathist to Saint Boniface will definitely help.
Unlike a prayer, an akathist (translated from Greek as “unsaddled song”) is pronounced while standing as a song of praise in honor of Christ the Savior, the Mother of God or saints. It has a special composition and consists of 25 songs arranged in accordance with the Greek alphabet.
Akathist Boniface is recommended to be read for at least 40 days along with a prayer to the saint. Naturally, at this time, the person praying should try with all his might to abstain from his addiction (drink, tobacco, drugs).
It is very important when pronouncing the words of the akathist:
- sincerely believe in healing;
- call upon the saint “with all your heart, with the fervor of your soul” (I. Kronstadtsky);
- glorify God's saint with a pure heart;
- venerate the Icon of the Mother of God “Inexhaustible Chalice”;
- resist various thoughts arising from evil spirits without stopping reading.

Cleansing from sins through Christianity (from the life story of Boniface)
Boniface lived during the reign of Emperor Diocletian (284-305) and was subordinate to the rich daughter of the proconsul, the Roman Aglaida. Since Bonifatius held the position of manager on his mistress’s estate, his life was very wicked: wine drinking, games, fornication and other addictions overwhelmed the sinner’s soul. He sinned even with Aglaida, indulging in carnal pleasures.
Several years later, Aglaida, sensing the depth of her sinful life, was afraid of the future punishment of the Lord and wished to “cleanse herself” by venerating the relics of the holy martyrs. She sent Boniface to Asia Minor, where persecution of Christians took place, so that he would buy and deliver to her the relics of the saints of God.
When Boniface arrived in the city of Tarsus, they were preparing to execute twenty Christian martyrs in the local amphitheater. It was a terrifying sight that shocked the young man so much that he immediately repented and in tears rushed to the beaten martyrs with a request to mention him, a sinner, in their prayers. After this, he became a follower of Christ and rejected paganism with contempt.
Boniface was taken to the circus, where various tortures were performed on him. However, despite the cruel torture, he steadfastly endured unbearable torment thanks to the prayers of the holy martyrs. He even listened to his death sentence, smiling joyfully, with a certain dispassion, as if he had already left this world. Having offered a prayer to the Lord before his death, Boniface crossed himself and accepted death with dignity.
Boniface's companions, hearing about what had happened, immediately bought his body and took it to Rome. At the same time, an Angel of God appeared to Aglaida and told her to go towards her comrade in fornication, and now the holy martyr of God, thanks to whom all her sins would be forgiven.

Subsequently, Aglaida built a church in honor of Boniface - at the meeting place of the brought relics of the saint. After the believers said the words of prayer to the saint of God, many miracles were performed in the temple. Aglaida herself began to lead a righteous life. Having distributed her property to the poor and devoting herself to pious deeds, she received the gift of miracles from God.
Akathist Boniface from drunkenness must be read with great reverence. Before reading the text, it is advisable to ask the priest for a blessing. To achieve the desired result, it takes a very long time to “report” such a protracted illness as alcoholism – up to 40 weeks.
If you ask for a loved one, be sure to think about him while reading the akathist or prayer, treat his soul with deep compassion and love. You can use the icon of Boniface, which is a kind of “connecting link” between the person praying and the image of the saint.
The text of the akathist to Saint Boniface is posted below. You can also use audio prayer to learn how to correctly read the words of the akathist and strengthen your faith in healing.
