“ Service is an extremely important part of my AA
program. I got involved right from the start, at the urging
of my sponsor. I held positions as Literature Chair and
Secretary in my Home Group. Later I became the GSR
and this led me to learning about service at the District
level. Service positions help me learn how to apply the
principles of the program into group situations which
helps me learn to function better at my job. And it opens
up a whole new network of fellow AAs." - Sarah M.,
Sobriety is Priority group GSR

“ When I first came into the program, I kept hearing about the miracles and could not quite figure out what people meant. As time went on and I got my marbles back, I realized that my life and the lives of those around me were getting better. Relationships were better and work was smooth. I had developed some great friendships and I was actually getting back in shape!" - Reprinted from the August 2009 Grapevine. Reprinted with permission of the A.A. Grapevine, Inc.
