I’ve gotten an email asking about holiday meeting schedules. MOST meetings typically meet every week, regardless of holidays.

Some specifics for the next couple of weeks:

• Tuesday night Eastside meeting (7p, Austin Mennonite Church) WILL be meeting in person on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.
• Tuesday Night Cedar Park meeting at Cedar Park First United Methodist will NOT meet on Christmas Eve, but WILL meet on New Year’s Eve.
• Tuesday night “We Are Not Alone” Women and LGBTQ+ meeting. Most regular members are planning to meet only virtually on Christmas Eve, but the Galano Club is probably still open. This meeting WILL meet in-person and online as usual on New Year’s Eve
• Wednesday noon ECR/Justin Lane meeting WILL be meeting both Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.

We’ve added two new meetings in the greater Austin area! They’re both for men-only. The “Stone Rollers” meeting is in South Austin and starts Monday, October 7. Johnny is looking for men to help seed that meeting, so if you live nearby and have Monday nights free, consider attending for a month or two!

The other meeting is in Killeen, about 60 miles north of Austin! That one has been meeting on Wednesday nights since August.

Congratulations to Johnny S and Tim N for helping carry the message to the sex addict who still suffers.

EDIT: A previous version of this post said the Stone Rollers meeting was going to be on Wednesday nights, but it has since changed to Monday.

News flash: New Webex links are coming for some (not all) virtual and hybrid meetings.

Today we renewed our webex license and went down to one licence from the two we have needed since the pandemic.  As a result, several of the meetings that were on the second account must be moved to the one-and-only remaining account.

The first one to shift is the Virtual Tuesday Night Men’s Meeting.

Others will be updated over the coming days.  If these links are active then the meeting has been updated:

• • Wednesday 7PM Round Rock virtual
  • Thursday 7PM Virtual Pflugerville
  • Friday Noon Virtual (originally Westlake)
  • Saturday 9:30AM Georgetown
  • Tuesday Noon (Virtual Tuesday Noon)

Others not on the list above should stay the same.
