You Are Needed!

Together we can do what we could never do alone.

Our primary purpose is to carry the message.

Please consider strengthening your own recovery by being of service in our Intergroup.

Our real purpose is to fit ourselves to be of maximum service to God and the people about us. (AA Big Book p. 77)

Remember that we are never asked to do anything except serve to the best of our abilities. We are never expected to be “experts”. Our traditions say we are “non-professional”.
