We are<br>a large group of people from very different<br>backgrounds with a common purpose, and our goal<br>is happy sobriety through spiritual growth. Yet, for<br>many of us, the programme is unexplored territory.<br>We may have admitted our powerlessness and<br>unmanageability and asked for help and then taken<br>it no further. Each person is free to follow their own<br>path without criticism of any kind, but there is so<br>much more to recovery than just sobriety. Doing<br>service involves spreading the message and helping<br>others to progress. But, in the process, we help<br>ourselves to grow spiritually.
