Visit navigate to Business Meetings, MAWPM Agenda  to review the agenda prior to the business meeting if possible.

 Service is how it works at the group level and personally service is Step Twelve in action. When you have at least  60 days weed free please consider doing service by chairing a MAWPM meeting. 

Speak with the MAWPM Chairperson Coordinator, or a current chair to get started chairing a meeting. The Chairperson Coordinator receives email at: cc-mawpm@ma-phone.org. 

 Sometimes people gather on this phone line at 4:20 EST for fellowship. Stop by if you’d like for unstructured conversation. If you connect at 4:20, please stay on the line for at least 5 minutes to increase the chance of connecting with others. 

 There is also the website mar-anon.com which offers hope for those affected by another person’s marijuana use. Mar-anon is a separate organization from Marijuana Anonymous.

 MA  World Services is developing a pen pal program that will involve MA members, with a year or more sobriety, being paired with an inmate who needs to share experience, strength & hope. For more information please contact hospitalsandinstitutions@marijuana-anonymous.org.

At last contact, the pen pal program was struggling with accessing facilities, so if this is something you would like to help out with, please email the H&I committee to see what they need.

 MA World Services is also developing a book of Daily Meditations and they need more submissions. Learn how you can contribute by e-mailing  Literature@marijuana-anonymous.org . More information is needed from the MAWS Literature committee as to the status of this project.
