About this meeting

On Friday evenings at 7pm, the Church of the Good Shepherd on Murrayfield Avenue hosts an 11th Step Prayer and Meditation meeting, a closed AA session that runs for an hour and a half. Rather than following the more familiar discussion or Big Book format, it is built around quiet reflection and prayer in the spirit of AA's Eleventh Step, which concerns seeking through prayer and meditation to improve conscious contact with a higher power as each person understands it. It is for those with a desire to stop drinking. The venue has wheelchair access, and chits are available for anyone who needs attendance signed for court, probation or treatment purposes.

Common questions

Who is this meeting suitable for?

This is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, which means it is for anyone with a desire to stop drinking rather than open to the general public. Newcomers are welcome as long as that describes them, including people early in sobriety or simply exploring whether AA is for them.

Is it free to attend and does it need booking?

No, it is completely free and there is no need to book or register in advance. Simply arrive for the start time and take a seat; AA meetings run on voluntary donations towards room hire and literature, but nobody is asked to pay to attend.

Can I get a signed attendance slip here?

Yes, chits are available at this meeting for members who need attendance confirmed for court, probation or treatment requirements; ask a member on arrival.
