AUGUST 2023

“NEWCOMERS—HOW TO WELCOME AND KEEP THEM” — Tradition Five says that each group has but one primary purpose—to carry its message to the sexaholic who still suffers. Local fellowships share how they provide a safe haven for the sexaholics that come for the first time to their meetings, and how they attract them to keep coming back. Read also the report on last month's Cracow International Convention. And enjoy a couple of stories from Israel, where the 2024 January International Convention will be held.

  • Working the Steps Is Her Top Priority

    My name is Meira. and I am a sexaholic. Or perhaps, more correctly, a lustaholic. I was using lust to cope with life as far back as I can remember, perhaps from the age of four or five. At first I used fantasy and compulsive masturbation, way before I even knew what sex was. These behaviors weren't a problem then—they were my solution.

  • Two Powers

    Recently, I was working Step Two with a sponsee of mine and God decided to grace me with a revelation that has completely changed how I see my recovery. As this revelation is still settling within me, I ask God to give me the clarity of thought, the presence of mind, and adequate words to be able to relate this spiritual experience.

  • It Works If You Work It

    Step 4 was not an easy one for me. After a lifetime of burying feelings, it was hard for me to recognize when I was feeling resentful and afraid. But I did my best knowing that it doesn’t need to be perfect and that I will have my whole life to go back and rework the Steps as I continue to grow.

  • The Israeli fellowship in 2023

    The Israel SA fellowship has seen tremendous growth in numbers and quality of recovery since it began in 1996. At our annual national SA conferences, with S-Anon’s participation, we often have between 400 and 500 attendees.

  • Early Bird Flyer

    The SA Israel fellowship, with our local S-Anon’s participation, is super-excited to be hosting the International Convention for the second time. In 2017, just at the beginning stage of becoming our own SA Region, we hosted the International Convention the first time it was held outside of the U.S.

  • My Road to the Polish Convention

    In order to best share my experience at the Poland International SA/S-Anon Convention I thought it best to describe my personal road traveled.
