AN INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHT

From my 1880s meditation book: "When we do our work in the great present...we are like to Him with whom there is no past or future...We walk without fear, full of hope and courage and strength to do His will, waiting for the endless good which He is always giving as fast as He can get us able to take it in."

Open Invitation

This past weekend the Akron (Ohio) Intergroup Council hosted the annual Founders' Day Celebration, which this year marked the 74th birthday of Alcoholics Anonymous.
And what a celebration it was! Over 11,000 attended from all over the world!

I always feel especially blessed because I live nearby and have been able to attend ten out of the last twelve years.

This year we were a Crew of 7: with sobriety ranging from almost 2 years to almost 2 decades; 4 gals and 3 guys; two from out of state; and three first time attendees.

Come and join us next June to celebrate AA's 75th. Complete info can be found at akronaa.org.
Just click on Founders Day.

The event is truly a spiritual experience.
