PAA Meetings

Back to the Basics of Recovery

Session 3: Steps 6, 7, 8 and 9

Bring something to write with. You continue with your sharing partner through the amends steps — 6, 7, 8 and 9.

Steps covered in this session

  1. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
  2. Humbly asked God to remove our shortcomings.
  3. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
  4. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

Your primary obligation is to attend all four sessions in order to take the Twelve Steps and offer encouragement and moral support to your partner. The conditions for being a sharing partner are: to be actively involved in your own Twelve-Step recovery; to be willing to listen to what your partner has to say; and to keep everything that is shared strictly confidential.
