Concept for Service Ten: The integrity of our Service Structure depends on continued unity of Marijuana Anonymous Groups, Districts, and World Services through effective communication.
How does regular communication support the other Concepts for Service?
Does the meeting/group maintain regular communication from the trusted servants, service boards, and committees that serve it, such as the DSC/RSC? MA World Services?
How has this communication, or lack of it, affected your meeting/group? District/region? How can it be improved?
Does your group send a GSR to the DSC/RSC? Why or why not?
Does the District have delegate(s) they send to the annual MA World Services’ business Conference to vote on agenda items and other important MA business matters? If not, why?
Does your District’s delegate (or another trusted servant) report on MA World Services’ business throughout their one-year term? Prior to the Conference on Conference Agenda items?
Is your group/meeting polled on Conference Agenda items prior to the MA World Service Conference (typically held at the end of May?) Does your District’s delegate report back to your group/meeting about the Conference and results of Conference Agenda Items?
Does your group share “pitch points” or other announcements at each meeting about District or Region business? About MA World Services business?
Announcements from MA World Services can be received directly through the newsletter “Carry the Message” Sign-up: MA12.org/CTM
Do members of our group/meeting know about and how to register to attend the annual fellowship Convention?
Are members of the group subscribed to the “A New Leaf,” MA’s monthly literary publication (which is now digital and free)? Are members of the group familiar with and subscribed to “Daily Dose” MA’s new daily e-mail with excerpts from MA’s daily reader “Living Every Day with Hope?”
Do members of the group submit content and sobriety anniversaries to A New Leaf either directly, or through a District “ANLP Liaison” (formerly “ANLP Bureau Chief?”)
