Chicago, IL

The Chicago Area Retreat Committee and the Chicago Area Intergroup recently hosted their Second Annual Spiritual Retreat for SA members entitled “Pathways to Peace,” based on the theme “The Promises.” The retreat lasted for three days. It was a wonderful chance to spend a recovery-filled weekend with members of the regional fellowship.

There were 39 people in attendance, including members from Iowa, Wisconsin, and Indiana, who traveled many hours to attend. It was inspiring to see the lengths people go to get the message of recovery.

We are blessed to have a wonderfully maintained retreat center campus in northwestern Illinois where we could spend the weekend together. Meals were included. We look forward to being able to meet again next year and extend an invitation to anyone interested in attending.
