The AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) 12 Step program to recovery.

1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol and that our lives had become unmanageable.

2. We came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

3. We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.

4. We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

5. We admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

6. We were entirely ready to allow God to remove all these defects of character.

7. We humbly ask Him to remove our shortcomings.

8. We made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to all.

9. We made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

10. We continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.

11. We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying for the knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.

12. Having had a spiritual awakening as as result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

This program leads up to the final step of a spiritual awakening so strong that a reformed alcoholic can help another alcoholic.

Dr. McAll states that similar is the awakening from spirit control, and that we should continue to love the dead for whom we have prayed, even after the communion, as well as continue praying for the living we have love towards. They are, after all, alive, just on a different plane of existence.....back to Alcoholics Anonymous
