The SA Promises

You are probably familiar with the Promises of AA. They are even read in some of our meetings. Did you know that in SA, we have our own promises? For those who want recovery there is great hope!

1) Release from the power of addiction
2) Loss of guilt and shame
3) Power over wrong
4) Freedom to do right
5) The ability to live comfortably with ourselves,
6) ….with others,
7) ………and with God.

Some consider the number 7 to be a perfect number. In this case, I think it fits. The program of SA, the working of the Steps and the presence of my Higher Power in my life have given me these very promises.
