EURYPAA Announcements - recieved and passed on

EURYPAA Announcements - recieved and passed on
July 23-25 hundreds of young people in AA from countries all across
Europe, as well as Australia, Asia, Africa, the United States and Canada
will come together in Stockholm, Sweden for the first-ever EURYPAA
conference!
Building the first All-Europe Young People in AA ("EURYPAA") conference
has been quite a project of service and fellowship, and we couldn't do
it without you being so supportive. Please continue helping us outreach
and worldwide. Download the new EURYPAA flyer at our website
http://www.eurypaa.org/ and pass it on at your meetings and to your
email or online friends.
What to expect at EURYPAA? You may be amazed by the incredible
fellowship in Stockholm AA. We are definitely NOT a glum lot! You will
probably get a kick, as we have, out of the conference being held in
München Brewery, a centuries old beer factory loving converted into a
conference and event hall in the 70's. (A worthy metaphor of our own
phoenix rising?) Undoubtedly you will make friends in recovery from all
over the world, and see how you can be of service to young people
internationally. And at the end of it all, exhausted from the full
activities and AA program (see below), you will go home with gratitude
that two hopeless drunks came together 75 years before and began a
worldwide fellowship that gives us all a sober future that outshines
even a Stockholm summer sky!
We look forward to sharing EURYPAA with you!
In fellowship,Jay G.EURYPAA 2010 Chair
