TWELVE STEPS OF A SPONSOR
If someone wants what I have to offer and I am willing to make the effort to give it, then I am ready to take certain steps. These are the principles that make sponsorship possible. 1) I am powerless over you and how you recover and I cannot manage your recovery. 2) I believe in the power of the help available to you, through me, other members, the rooms, the literature, and a loving power greater than either you or me. 3) I make a decision to give you onto the care of a loving power as you are coming to understand. 4) I face with a power greater than myself all that you are and all that you choose to bring. 5) I share with you in truth and honest reflection the experience, strength and hope I have acquired. 6) I become entirely ready to work with you in any way. 7) I remain teachable in order to seek any new perspective or direction in helping you in your recovery. 8) I make all effort to bring you into my heart, willing to do all that I can except when to do so will injure myself or others. 9) I am direct with you, consistent and unswayed by distractions or diversions. 10) I look daily at the direction of our work and promptly seek to correct misdirection where found. 11) I seek through prayer and meditation, understanding of the will of a power greater than yourself in your life and the power to support that. 12) I continue to do all of these steps, seeking always how I may best help you in your recovery.
