The Best Gig in AA

“We need help folks” said Mike at a regular gathering of the “Mini-Assembly” of the districts in the South Okanagan Valley in British Columbia. Mike was asking for help because his district was just too small and thinly populated to have the resources (people and funds) to effectively carry the message to a newly built Provincial Correctional Facility in their neighborhood. Mike and several others had been working as hard as they could, but it just wasn’t enough. A member of a neighboring district raised their hand and offered to help—and so began a most interesting and satisfying journey.
