About this meeting

Chorley St Gregory Big Book meets every Saturday at 7.30pm at St Gregory's Church on Weld Bank Lane, south Chorley. As the name declares, this is a Big Book meeting: each week the group reads from Alcoholics Anonymous — the 1939 text the fellowship is named after — and members share on how its words map onto their own drinking and recovery. It is a closed meeting for people with a desire to stop drinking, it runs for one hour, and the church is wheelchair accessible. For anyone who wants to understand the programme itself, not just hear stories, a Big Book study is where AA's engine is on display.

Common questions

What is the Big Book?

'Alcoholics Anonymous', first published in 1939 — the book the fellowship is named after. It lays out the twelve-step programme. This meeting reads and discusses it each week.
