A Very Short Form of WE AGNOSTICS SUNDAY 8 PM

If a regular member of the group is not attending, the Guest Host may use this SHORT FORM of the meeting agenda.

##

Welcome to the regular Sunday night meeting of the AA group "We Agnostics."  We are hosted at the SHARE  center in Culver City, California, and we welcome members nation wide via Zoom.

Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism.  

The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for AA membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes. 

Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

INTRODUCTIONS.   Welcome people to introduce themselves both in the room and on Zoom.

##

We Agnostics welcomes persons of all beliefs.  We are a secular group, for example, we do not close with the Lord's Prayer.   

Most of our members have taken a flexible approach to concepts like "higher power."    As Appendix II of the Big Book states, our experience with sobriety develops over a period of time.  Most of us find we get out of AA based on, what we put into it.

Many of our members find it is useful to have a home group.   As far as the Twelve Steps, they talk about quitting drinking and seeking help, facing problems on the inside, and facing problems on the otuside.   Many of us worked some version of the steps, and many of us have a sponsor which helps us learn about AA outside of the meetings.   Sharing at meetings is also important.   

##

This is a sharing meeting, one person shares at a time, for five minutes or less, and then the next person.  We avoid crosswalk on outside topics, criticizing someone, or starting a question and answer with someone during the meeting.    The meeting is now open for sharing.   

##
AT TEN TO THE HOUR

Our time has run out.   We want to especially welcome everyone who was new to our meeting, and we hope you come back another Sunday night.    (Offer an email for court cards, if possible.)    We will cose with the Responsibility Rtatement on the cout of three.   1,2,3.


When anyone, anywhere, reaches out for help, we want the hand of AA always to be there, and for that, we are responsible.  Keep coming back.!
