Group News
Our Wednesday London SA group is going strong. We are now averaging between 8-12 people a meeting and we are gaining good, honest sobriety. Thanking you.
Report on the January Conference
On the first day of the conference I shared at a taped meeting about New York’s progress and got a warm confirmation from many members on how healing it is for them to hear that SA here is active and grateful. I told them we had adopted the standard meeting format and the kind of results that this had produced, and many people came up to me afterwards asking how we did it.
SACC
Hi, I’m Marsha F. a gratefully recovering sexaholic by the grace of God and this Fellowship. I have come to discover there is very little difference between myself (a SA on the outside) and the SA’s I have met on the inside.
What’s Going On in SA
During the March 26, 1995 Central Office/Steering Committee meeting, the following issues were raised:
Editors’ Corner
The COOC and the Central Office want to express sincere gratitude for the generosity of the fellowship in response to our appeal for funds. This makes it possible for us to continue to “carry the message to the sexaholic who still suffers.” If contributions continue at this level, we will be able to serve our basic needs.
Central Office Begins Process of Updating Records
SA’s Central Office needs to have an updated completed list of all local groups with the following information, if possible:
Service Structure Committee Update
There has been a surge of interest in SA for unity through representation. Many are asking how they can start an intergroup or communicate with other people in their region. The answers will come; the key is willingness and an open mind. Every area can do what best suits their current situation. The overall goal is to have each SA group represented in their respective regional assembly this year.
Literature Committee Update
The Literature Committee is considering a new book for SA that would address such topics as developing healthy groups, guidelines for meetings, sponsorship, helping newcomers, a history of SA, and more. Parts of Discovering the Principles and the SA Meeting Guide will also be included. But help is needed from each group (and Intergroup).
12 Steps as Principles of Recovery from where I am Today
Dying: Admit I am powerless over lust; that my sex, sexuality, orientation and relational misconnection are unmanageable.
Striving for 100% Willingness
At a recent check-meeting on chronic slipping in our local group here in Somerset, I made a personal discovery which I would like to share, it made so much sense to me.
