Hello and welcome! We will open our meeting with the Full of Faith Preamble, followed by Psalm 23.
PREAMBLE:
Full of Faith is a Christian support group for food addicts in recovery. We apply Biblical principles in working the 12-steps, and we do not eat sugar, flour, sweeteners (natural or artificial), and volume one day at a time. We plan what we eat and eat what we plan. For more information about the ministry, go to fulloffaith.com.
Psalm 23:
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.
(Psalm 23 ESV)
Here are the guidelines to sharing:
Everyone is welcomed to share their experience, strength and hope; however, we ask that you try to limit your shares to 2-3 minutes in order to give others an opportunity to share. As a gentle reminder, __________ (name of person who volunteered to time) will say “time” at 2 and 1/2 minutes, allowing additional time to wrap up your thoughts. If the room is quiet, please allow some moments of silence before sharing a second time.
We refrain from mentioning specific foods by name, as it could trigger food thoughts in others, and there is no crosstalk, which is commenting on another person's share (positive or negative) or giving advice. Using "for me" statements enables everyone to feel safe and protected in the rooms of Full of Faith.
Close the meeting with The Prayer of St. Francis:
Lord, make me a channel of thy peace,
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadnesss, joy.
O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying
that we are born to eternal Life.
