"You Can't Make Me Angry" Meeting Format

If no one shows up in the ZOOM room by 6:05pm EST, please go to the phone meetings number:  667-770-1484, pin 109244#.  
  

Hello, my name is Pam from Auburn.  Ellen from KY and I welcome you to our study of "Boundaries for Your Soul" by Dr. Alison Cook.   We will open our meeting with the Full of Faith Preamble, followed by The Third Step Prayer.


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.

PRAYER: 

God, I offer myself to Thee. To build with me and to do with me as Thou wilt. Relieve me of the bondage of self, that I may better do Thy will. Take away my difficulties, that victory over them may bear witness to those I would help of Thy Power, Thy Love, and Thy Way of life. May I do Thy will always!
    
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 cross-talk, 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 with the 7th Step Prayer:

I am now willing that you should have all of me, good and bad. I pray that you now remove from me every single defect of character which stands in the way of my usefulness to you and my fellows. Grant me strength, as I go out from here, to do your bidding.
