An Al-Anon meeting is very much like this podcast. Members and potential members don’t need an invitation. There is no one we need to call to make an appointment. All we need to do is show up and listen. A volunteer will lead the meeting without being in charge of the meeting. She or he will read an introduction and offer a topic for discussion. The topic for discussion today is: Why did we come to Al-Anon?
