“I had never been a joiner. I was always on the outside. You were never going to get to know who I really was, only the persona that I presented.”
We do not want to merely “see” beauty - though, God knows, even that is bounty enough. We want something else which can hardly be put into words -to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it.”
— C.S. Lewis
The only requirement for membership is an honest desire to stop drinking. We are not allied with any particular faith, sect or denomination, nor do we oppose anyone. We simply wish to be helpful to those who are afflicted.
