Russ R, Mark W, and Michael E invite you to join us for the Second Round of these experiences – a study of the Traditions through the NA book It Works: How and Why. To assure everyone gets the most out of the experience, we are asking each participant to commit to participating in all six Zoom sessions from 8:00 – 10:00 am on consecutive Saturdays starting September 11th and have at least 90 days clean. You will also need a notebook and pen, and your own copy of It Works: How and Why. To join us for this meaningful, fun experience, please email Mark W. [email protected].
Study details:
Book Study – The Twelve Traditions (to be Followed by the Twelve Steps)
As described by its authors, the Traditions section of It Works: How and Why “serves as a resource for groups and the individual member. It seeks to explore the spiritual principles within the Traditions, engage members with the spirit — not the law — of the Traditions, and provide a basis for thought and discussion about the Traditions. Rather than creating a uniform authority for recovery groups, the book’s authors sought to stimulate “local interpretation of the practical application of the principles contained in the traditions.” This is our goal – to deepen our understanding of the Traditions both for individual recoveries and in service to our local CMA fellowship.
To assure everyone gets the most out of the experience, we are asking each participant to commit to participating in all six Zoom sessions from 8:00 – 10:00 am on consecutive Saturdays starting September 11th . You will also need a notebook and pen, and your own copy of It Works: How and Why. We recommend a hard copy, but the Kindle version will also work. We are also recommending that participants have a sponsor and at least 90 days clean.
To join us for this meaningful, fun experience, please email [email protected]. We are limiting the number of participants to assure an interactive experience for everyone – first come, first served. In addition, we will give first priority for the second, 12-week book study of the Twelve Steps that will start later this year to those who participate in the Traditions book study.
