Tokyo, Japan
We celebrated our first birthday in the Tokyo Group in August. We average four or five members every week—three come by train, the farthest traveling two hours. A few Japanese who speak English well have joined the group and eventually we hope to begin a Japanese SA group. Enjoyed the articles in the recent Essay and the experiences and inspiration of SA members are a big help on the road to sobriety.

A literature order is enclosed. This is a big order for us, but I don’t suppose it is for some of your groups. We have two groups in Sydney, one in the country, and one in Melbourne. There may be two other groups in Queensland but we have not heard from them for a while so we are not sure if they are still functioning. We are trying to live the Steps in our lives but not finding it easy. We find it much easier to use the Traditions in our lives, the groups and fellowship. We send our love and good wishes to our fellow members worldwide. So until next time, lots of blessings.

Frome, Somerset, UK
Thanks to your reaching out in response to one of our members’ request for literature to get us started, we now have materials to offer newcomers. Frome SA meets for one hour, twice a week, with three regular members. We also stay in telephone contact between meetings. As far as we know, this is the only meeting in the UK outside London. We are in touch with members there, and have exchanged visits. Please include us in your international directory. We also have language skills in French and German. Please accept this further literature order. How can we subscribe to Essay and obtain back copies? Please advise.
