THE 12 STEPS FOR EVERYONE TALK DESCRIPTION

"If you're green, you grow; if you're not, you rot!" This striking statement is a reminder that recovery, being fully human and enjoying sobriety, joyful and free, is an ongoing process of faith, fellowship and self-awareness. This presentation, based on the bool Walk A New Path, brings together Indigenous, 12 Step and Judeo-Christian spiritualities. It will cover the journey into addiction, the nature of addiction, and the 12 Step healing journey from addiction. The talk is open to anyone either in the program or loving one who is, as well as anyone wanting to learn mre about addiction and the process of recovering from addiction.

Donations for 2023 and beyond: We have received some inquiries about how automatic donations work and thought it would be good to share the information with everyone on this available option. The first step is to come to the parish office with a voided cheque from your chequing account. We will process your request and you will sign a form giving our bank permission to make this transaction. The donation is withdrawn from your bank account on a monthly basis (between the 1st & 4th). The donor specifies the amount and where the monies are to be directed: Offerings or Renovations. You will see this transaction appear on your bank statements. This is a tax-deductible donation and will be added to your totalled donations for your year-end tax receipt. This option has administrative benefits both to the donor and for the parish office. We thank you for your continued support and encourage you to use whichever method works best for you.
