The group here at K.S.P. is doing fine so far. It has dropped in attendance to about eleven. Our sobriety is getting stronger thanks to our Higher Power. Longest…so far is a little over a year by one inmate and four months for another.

[In March, four SA men spent the weekend with inmates at the Arkansas Department of Correction in Pine Bluff. They all returned with great enthusiasm, grateful they had gone. One of these reported it was “the most powerful experience of his life.”]
The past month we have spent enjoying the spirituality of the visit we had from our brothers in recovery from California and Kansas City. We didn’t know what to expect, but we now want what we got as often as anyone would want to come…we are hoping this type of weekend becomes at least an annual event. For us it was fantastic.… The visit has touched the hearts of many men here…that someone else had the same problems that they have and that something really could be done to recover. All three of our SA groups have grown stronger since the visit.
Our goal now is to bring our program more in line with the Twelve-Step movement. It has taken us time to understand some of what we are learning, but slowly and surely we are getting there.
Again, thanks for all your concern and care for us in the past year. We look forward to being part of SA for years to come.
