Chairing my first meeting tomorrow!
I'm a little nervous about it but what an honor. Considering how unmanageable my life was not too long ago it's a dadgum miracle that i'm being trusted to open, set up, and chair this meeting. It's simply amazing what the program has done for me already.
For those new in recovery and 12 step fellowship i strongly encourage you to get a sponsor, do a 90 in 90, and get a homegroup. By following these simple instructions i have the opportunity tomorrow to give a tiny little something back to those who've so freely given to me. What a blessing! Just had to share. Thanks.

augustwest that is awesome, get there a bit early if possible, say a little prayer asking simply for the ability to chair the meeting in a manner that will help others & then just trust that all will go well. Try a little meditation before hand as well.
Just trust & have faith that how ever the meeting flows that it flowed to fulfill his will and not yours.
I chaired last night, it was an awesome meeting and to be honest I can take no credit for it being an awesome meeting, I simply did my part.
