AA Book Study, GRAND RE-OPENING; next reading "Tradition Three" pg139-145

Hello everyone,

We will finally be restarting  the Wednesday night meeting of the Big Book Study Group. I am eager to see everyone and keep the Wednesday night meeting going! Hopefully, there won't be too many kinks to work out but this is our first time meeting here, so who knows... If you need directions there is a map below or just give me a call. Remember the new meeting time is 7:30pm.

Although tomorrow is the last Wednesday of the week, given we've been away for a couple of weeks, we'll be retaking the traditions where we left off. This week's reading will be Tradition Three pgs 139-145. Below you can find the usual law & order of the meeting and the re-set schedule which we'll follow from here on out. I feel like there are a lot more people who come to the meeting (off & on) than are on my e-mail list. If you could, please just help spread the word.

In any case, I'm extremely gratified for having this honor and sincerely hope we can keep up the high bar we set at Greg's place for quality and content.
     
Best Regards,
David ten Brink

Anywho, I'd like to thank Dave W. for sharing his excellent story with us last week, nothing helps recovery along like a heavy dose of humor & depravity and Jesus Dave delivered in spades!! Also I'd like to remind everyone of the upcoming AA convention in Manuel Antonio that's taking place from May 6-8th. We're still working on the details of organizing our group to get out there but let me know if your interested and go online to  register now  -  It's FREE!!  (to register anyways, you pay later!!) This week we'll be reading  A Drunk, like You p398-406 . This was the first time for me reading it and I got a lot out of it. Aside from the fact that I always love listening to another  Member of the Tribe  breaking barriers by showing that alcoholism is no respecter of race, religion or creed, proving you  jew *i mean too*  ...

Gutter Bravado p501-511

Good evening Folks, This week we will be reading & discussing  Gutter Bravado p501-511.   One of the great joys of my life is hosting this Wednesday night meeting of which I've had the privileged to serve for some time now. So it gives me a great sense of satisfaction whenever I hear someone, especially a new comer, say that there is  something  special about our meeting. To me it means that the same  something-ness  with which I fell in love with is still there.  Last week, Fred brought up an article originally written in the July 1976 issue of "24 Magazine". In the article, the unknown author compares the quality of someone's AA program to Strong/Medium/Week Coffee.  See the article here:  http://www. barefootsworld.net/ aagreshamslaw.html  It's a bit long but well worth the read (kind of like my e-mails!! lol).  Basically it describes how the rapid growth of AA in the early 40's created a situation in which y...
