Clarence Snyder 1982
...
Clarence Snyder and Cleveland, Ohio A.A.
Dr. Bob Smith sponsored Clarence Snyder. Clarence met Dr. Bob in Akron City Hospital February 11, 1938, the date Clarence celebrated as his sobriety date for the next forty-six years.
Clarence was among the first 40 members of AA and his story is included in the first three versions of 'the Big Book' as AA #11, "The Home Brewmeister". He was part of the counseling team that wrote the Big Book.
Clarence, the "HOME BREWMEISTER" passed along the specific Bible, Oxford Group, and devotional ideas that enabled early AAs to succeed so well. Moreover, Clarence, like Dr. Bob, felt there was no need to stay sick.
People could recover; and alcoholics who took the Steps, trusted God, and abided by the Four Absolutes (Honesty, Purity, Unselfishness and Love) did recover and stayed recovered. Bob took people through the six steps in an afternoon.
Clarence took thousands through the Twelve Steps in two days.
The first gathering of what was known as an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting was held on May 11, 1939, at the home of Abby G. in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Nell Wing, Bill Wilson's secretary from 1947 until his death in 1971 and A.A.'s first archivist said that Clarence was rightly the first person to use the initials A.A. in reference to Alcoholics Anonymous.
Other early innovations credited to Clarence are:
• forming the first Central Committee in A.A.,
• developing A.A.'s first newsletter, the Bulletin to All Groups that in 1942 became the Cleveland Central Bulletin,
• initiated the practice of rotation of officers both at meetings and with the Central Committee,
• wrote A.A.'s first pamphlet on sponsorship in 1944, and,
• helped organize a convention celebrating A.A.'s 10th anniversary in Cleveland. Over 3000 AA's attended representing over 25 states and Canada. This was A.A.'s first unofficial international convention.

50th Anniversary
November 12, 2011
Doors open at 5:30 pm
Dinner at 6:30 pm
Speaker at 7:30 pm - Vic M. - North Coast Group
Come Help celebrate our 50th year where Men and Women have found a safe and sober place to go rather than to a bar or the streets.
Night and Day, through the years, with the Help of many, has remained open both as a safe and sober place.
Here, more often than not, you can find a cup of coffee and not be alone or feel threatened. Often, another person or perhaps a group is here to help you through a period where the urge to drink may have been stronger than the desire to stay sober.
Members of A.A. through their unselfish contributions of time and money have kept the doors open. Many groups hold their A.A. meetings here each week.

The Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous
The relative success of the A.A. program seems to be due to the fact that an alcoholic who no longer drinks has an exceptional faculty for "reaching" and helping an uncontrolled drinker.
In simplest form, the A.A. program operates when a recovered alcoholic passes along the story of his or her own problem drinking, describes the sobriety he or she has found in A.A., and invites the newcomer to join the informal Fellowship.
The heart of the suggested program of personal recovery is contained in Twelve Steps describing the experience of the earliest members of the Society:
1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol - that our lives had become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5. Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
8. Made a list of

Terre Haute, Indiana - 15 Minutes's of SILENCE / Step 11
STEP 11
Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
AA p87
We find that our thinking will, as time passes, be more and more on the plane of inspiration. We come to rely upon it.
The Four Absolutes
Honesty
Unselfishness
Love
Purity
We are now living
in "the Sunshine
of the Spirit."
We conduct a morning "quiet time" to
receive guidance from God.
The guidance
we receive is checked against the "Test for
self-will / God's Will" and with our "sharing
partners" in order to separate the God
thoughts from the self thoughts.
Surrender ............. Steps 1, 2, 3
Sharing ............... Steps 4, 5, 6, 7
Restitution ........... Steps 8, 9
Guidance .............. Steps 10, 11, 12
The 4 Absolutes were used by
the Oxford Group in 3 ways:
1. As a way to take inventory
of our past to see where we fell
short and in what ways, so that
we could learn what areas of
our life need to be worked on.
2. During meditation or while
being inspired or guided by
our Inner Voice, as a way to
differentiate between "God"
thoughts and human thoughts.
3. As a standard of living,
moment by moment.

Daily Reflections ~ March 10
TODAY, IT’S MY CHOICE
. . . we invariably find that at some time in the past we have made decisions based on self which later placed us in a position to be hurt.
— ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 62
With the realization and acceptance that I had played a part in the way my life had turned out came a dramatic change in my outlook. It was at this point that the A.A. program began to work for me. In the past I had always blamed others, either God or other people, for my circumstances. I never felt that I had a choice in altering my life. My decisions had been based on fear, pride, or ego. As a result, those decisions led me down a path of self-destruction. Today I try to allow my God to guide me on the road to sanity. I am responsible for my action—or inaction—whatever the consequences may be.
