ANLP Creative Writing Workshop:  1st Saturday each month

Writing is a powerful tool for recovery that can help us process experiences, better understand our feelings, and experience growth in all areas of our lives. it is through our shared experiences as recovering addicts that we support ourselves and the newcomer. Meet with us monthly to discuss our recovery and creativity, engage in writing exercises and share our work. We will share tips about the writing process, provide prompts, and time for sharing! All that is needed is a desire to write. For more information, see anewleafpublications.org/workshop.  To sign up, email [email protected]

2024 Conference Session II

While preparing Living Every Day with Hope (daily reader) for publication, the Special Worker noticed three sets of identical entries and two sets of very similar entries—which the MA Board of Trustees, A New Leaf Publications, and the Daily Reader subcommittee all agreed need to be modified.

The 2023 Conference Body approved the content of the daily reader, and making changes to the content requires Conference-approval.Therefore, the decision was made to call a second, one-day session of the 2024 Conference Body on January 11, 2025 to approve the changes proposed as soon as possible, rather than wait until May 2025. Your attendance will help the Fellowship receive Living Every Day with Hope, in its exciting new book form without further delay! Please review the Agenda packet and be sure to *register* for this important special session registration closes January 5th, 2025. Visit mawsconference.org to view the agenda packet, schedule, to register, and for more information about the Conference.
