About this meeting

Southport Big Book Study meets on Sunday evenings at 6.30pm at the United Church, 5 Lord Street West, close to the centre of Southport. As the name suggests, the meeting is built around the Big Book — the core text of Alcoholics Anonymous — with the group reading and discussing how its chapters play out in real sobriety. The meeting runs for an hour and a half and is open, so anyone may attend: people who want to stop drinking, family, friends and anyone curious about how AA works. The church has wheelchair access. A Sunday evening study meeting is a settled, thoughtful way to close the weekend and set up the week ahead.
