AA Preamble
Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength, and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism.  The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for AA membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes.  Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics achieve sobriety.
In the format of our meeting, the leader will read a portion of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, share on the reading for 5-10 minutes after which I will call on, and unmute, people to share.  We ask all who are called on to limit their shares to 3-5 minutes. When you have used up your time you will hear an alarm go off.  
Tonight the reading will start at: (page number and paragraph)
[LEADER READS, SHARES AND THEN PICKS PEOPLE TO SHARE UNTIL 7:55]
