[The check] is towards the deficit incurred at the headquarters. How is the lowering of the deficit coming? [Thanks to the response from the groups, we are again in the black and hope to buy a xerox machine or computer soon. See the financial report in this ESSAY.

This donation is from the entire group. We are honored to send this. The mailing out of the donation list was an excellent idea, and a great motivator. It really helps us to put our donations, in relation to the fellowship at large, in proper perspective. God love ya!

We will begin meeting in planning for the July 1988 convention with a business meeting after our Monday night regular meeting. It is very exciting to contemplate this privilege which Higher Power has bestowed on us. Certainly, your prayers will be needed.

Thank you for your help and support. We are getting a group formed here in Burlington, Vermont. Thank God! He has put people from AA in my path and—guess what?—they are loners in SA. There is no coincidence. There is a Higher Power for us all!
