Convention Planning
The St. Louis SA group is looking for our help and support in planning the December convention.
Late Thoughts From Oklahoma City
We spoke out of recovery and celebrated sobriety for three days in Oklahoma City. That first night as sobriety was held up so we could see the recovery on the faces of those receiving the hugs, chips, and joy that comes with clean and sober living, I felt a gentle Power wash through our gathering. Gentle, but in waves it came, nine years, four years, three years, “the class of ’83,” two years, one year, nine months, six months, two, and one month.
Cleveland Marathon Report
The time spent with other SA members is always rewarding, but Saturday was so warm and filled with the spirit of sobriety and love. Thank God for others who are struggling and who are sober.
Kansas City Convention
…Kansas City was wonderful! What a high and how truly God-given it was to make the connection with fellow sex drunks from all over the world.

Editor’s Corner
What a marvelous time we had in New York City April 26th! And Cleveland May 3rd! Two one-day SA happenings. The get-togethers got us together. It seems to happen every time.
Just In From The Cleveland Marathon

Action Items
When sending checks to the Central Office without any correspondence, would you please make a memo on the check saying whether it’s a donation, literature purchase, or whatever. Also, if you’re sending payment for a literature order someone else in the group made, would you please let us know? Our records indicate the name of the person placing the order, not always the group.
Members’ Notes
A.A., of San Angelo, TX, reports: “This group has come into being on its own. One of the member’s AA sponsor told him to talk to me about SA. At the time, he told me there would be no way he could meet in a mixed group. Well, tonight he celebrated his sixth week of sobriety!
