Hello San Diego/Imperial Valley,
I’m feeling truly blessed to be able to serve such a wonderful Region and hope this is a new way to keep you up to date with things happening in NA around the World.
We just finished the Post CAR Assembly for GSRs and RCMs and I missed those of you who were unable to make it. We had 60 in attendance with free brunch throughout the morning and afternoon. I believe I achieved my goal of keeping it informative while allowing the audience to be interactive in providing their input to pass on to the World. For those of you who missed it, I am providing some items for your information.
1. Attached is a copy of the World Service Conference’s Summary of Decisions (or votes made) last April.
2. A link to the Living Clean book project (a 4-year project with 2 more years to go).
3. A link to the Service System project (as the World is working on ways to improve how we operate NA as a whole – this will be a 2-year project).
4. A copy of the World Pool Resume and link to the online version. This resume is used to run for any World position or to participate in World projects (such as literature production or world conventions).
THEY WILL HOLD THE NEXT WORLD CONVENTION HERE IN SAN DIEGO!!!
WCNA-344
34th World Convention of NA
1-4 September 2011
San Diego Convention Center
5. The World will be seeking around 13 local members to be on a local HOST committe some time around the end of 2010. Standardly, this is up to a 9 month committment with a suggested clean time of 10 years, but no less than 5 years clean. It is a very strenuous time consuming committment and recommended to not hold any other positions at the same time as your committment to this position. This information is based on past history, so don’t quote me on it!
I’ve also been approached lately on the topic of Consensus Based Decision Making and how it works. I’ve attached an exerpt on this for more information.
As a reminder, as your Regional Delegate and Nila as your Regional Delegate alternate, it is our duty to assist anyone in our fellowship with questions related to service locally as well as methods utilized around the world. We would love to put on a workshop at your upcoming event or just answer questions you may have about a particular subject, or even pros and cons of items of concern. Please remember no question is too dumb! It is also our duty to take your input back to the world.
