SERVICE
Whomsoever shall compel you to go with him one mile… go with him…. Go another mile.
~ Og Mandino ~
No effort must ever seem so great that it will stop us from giving completely of ourselves in helping someone find the kind of life others helped us find. It is the responsibility of each member to go to any lengths in giving service. Whatever sacrifice it may require from us will bring great rewards.
We always learn that, in the act of one person helping another, no person can give without receiving, or get without giving. We learn from our sponsors that when they help us, they are also helping themselves. This experience is a very important part of the Program. Our 1st, 2nd, and 5th Traditions are grounded in the principle of service to others. We are privileged to share in that experience.
When I undertake to help another person or our Fellowship, I must strive to do more and serve better than is expected of me.
