Meeting Notes
A Big Book Study. One person reads while another facilitates. Then we open up for sharing. As we read the book, the facilitator breaks it down in detail. Similar to how a sponsor/sponsee would read together. The process is similar to Lawrence Cedarhurst Group and other Big Book Studies.
