Topic Meeting
This is an open meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous. All are welcome here.
Please turn off and put away your cell phones at this time.
I have asked _______ to read selections from our basic text.
The members of this group are committed to practicing the 12 steps as outlined in the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. It is our intent to share our experience, strength, and hope with those who suffer from the disease of alcoholism so that we may carry out AA’s primary purpose - to help alcoholics recover through the 12 steps.
We pass the basket now to honor the 7th Tradition for us to be self-supporting. These funds help pay for the coffee supplies, chips, AA Literature, Zoom account, renting our space with the church and our contributions as a group to District, Area and GSO. If you would like to be a part of and donate with Venmo, PayPal or CashApp, there are handouts with QR Bar Codes for each in the basket you can scan. If you have a card or slip that needs to be signed please put that in the basket at this time. Cards will be signed during the meeting and you can pick them up after the meeting.
