Baltimore/Washington

Recently I helped organize the one-day Baltimore-Washington SA/S-Anon Marathon, held this year in Crystal City, VA on Oct. 19. The theme was “Honesty, Open-mindedness and Willingness.” The meeting consisted of two joint speaker meetings, breakout meetings, couples meetings with a total of 96 members attending.

This was the most moving experience I have had since coming into SA. It was the 13th month of my sobriety. It was the first anniversary of graduating from a sexual addiction treatment program and I had been asked to speak on my favorite subject, honesty. All the speakers delivered very powerful messages; the breakout meetings were really on the mark and the fellowship was outstanding. The most powerful experience for me was a joint breakout meeting. It was truly a spiritual experience to share with members of S-Anon. So many members of both fellowships voiced a desire for future joint meetings that we scheduled a group conscience to talk about future meetings.
