LOV NOTES FROM YOUR EDITOR:

It has been a beautiful spring and it won’t be too long till those hot sticky days of summer. Take advantage of the great weather and fresh air of the Lake of the Ozarks. Come join us as we celebrate the wonderful gift of fellowship at the Missouri Al-Anon Convention, May 17 & 18.

You will be enamored as you see service work and recovery on the faces of the participants, and enjoy the great line-up of speakers and workshops. The love and acceptance displayed at the convention has been a positive part of my recovery, you should try it at least once. It is your program, and you don’t need an invitation, make yourself a priority.  Al-Anons from all over the state of Missouri are coming together for another year of gratitude and peace. To encourage new people in coming to the Convention there will be two drawings. Each attendee who brings someone new to the convention and that new person will put their names in separate “hats” for a drawing for each group of a set of convention CDs.

Hope to see you there. Dave
