Prince Edward Island, Canada
Sorry for being so long in payment of the White Book—it is some heavy book. The group is going well. We have four regular members who are really working hard on their sobriety.

…our group started out with just three people and has grown to six. We are here to help each other stay sober. We believe that if you keep bringing the body, the mind will soon follow. We keep coming back because it works.

Our group grew out of the original eastside meeting that was approaching nearly 30 participants each Sunday night. We fortunately found a home for a second Sunday meeting on the west side of Portland, hence we’ve come to be known as the Sunday evening “westside” group. As a group we started in November, with six of us, and we’ve been consistently growing together in strength and recovery. Occasionally attendance swells into the double digits, but more importantly, many of us have significant sobriety and recovery, with at least four of us having over two years.

We have about 30 names on our Wednesday SA sobriety list with seven to eleven attendees most meetings and three of us with more than one year of sobriety.

We [Rochester Intergroup] meet on a monthly basis to pray together, share recovery, and handle matters which are perceived to involve SA in the Rochester area. There is a lot of discussion at these meetings and a lot of items on our agenda. We receive support from the autonomous groups and fund an inventory of literature and sobriety chips as well as our P.O. Box. Now that these projects are completed, excess money in our treasury will be sent to the C.O. in addition to money sent by the individual groups. I have said this so many times, but it’s true, Rochester is truly blessed with an SA program that has saved many lives, including mine, and the Central Office has played a big role in this. May God bless you and all the work you do. Yours in God’s love and sobriety.

The Tuesday night Freedom Group is still growing. We now have a second Akron meeting every Saturday morning. We are hopeful that it grows as steadily as the Tuesday group. Recovery is continuing for many people in this area. Some of us are helping to get a group started at Southeastern Correctional Institute in Lancaster, OH. Our first group there went extremely well. There are many men there with a strong desire to recover.

Winona, MN
Thanks to our Higher Power and your work, we have finally started a Winona SA Group. Due to our city’s location on the Mississippi River, we have named our group The Winona River of Hope SA Group… Currently we have four attendees, one female and three males.
