SA Office Telephone. The SA office phone is now being answered during working hours. Nan, our non-sexaholic secretary, will be picking up the calls, unless she’s out getting the mail, etc. You can leave any messages with her without fear of jeopardizing your anonymity. She has proven her trustworthiness and confidentiality. The number here is 818/704-9854. We ask only that you do NOT give this number out to the media; treat it as you would your own number.
Women Volunteers. We need names of women, especially single, who are willing and able to be contacts/remote sponsors for women newcomers without groups.
Prison Volunteers. We need names of men, especially those who have been involved with types of acting out that prisoners might identify with, as contacts, correspondents, and remote sponsors for loner male members in prison.
S‑Anon. The S‑Anon people (spouses and friends of sexaholics) ask that any potential S‑Anon members who need/want contact with S‑Anon in your area be directed to the S‑Anon central office: S‑Anon, 2303 N. 14th Street, Suite 279, Phoenix, AZ 85008. S‑Anon is growing too; Phoenix demonstrated that!
Input for Future Conventions. If you have any suggestions/comments regarding the previous get-togethers that might benefit future conventions, now’s the time to make them known to those doing the planning.
Does Every Group Have a Meeting Guide? The SA Meeting Guide (8/84 revision), still in preliminary form, is a 20-page booklet containing: Suggestions for New SA Groups, Meetings—How They Work, Suggested Meeting Formats, various readings used in meetings, etc.
The Meeting Guide distills the essence of some of our hard experience learned to date and is meant to be what its name implies, a guide. ☆We’re looking for group opinions and constructive comments. Price is $3.00 each, including postage. You can order them from Nan, as with the other literature.
Action Reminder. Since this is such a lengthy newsletter, I thought I’d flag items suggesting your response with some sort of symbol in the margin ☆. Please make this newsletter available to all SA members.
We thank God again for helping us in every way, especially in granting us the gift of sobriety, forgiving one another, and loving one another—the greatest gift. May we find the grace to give that love to each other and the needy who still suffer during this New Year.
☆Please take time to help us update our group info. Send us your group info and contact persons and info on any groups we may not know about in your or other areas.
