I am so grateful for electronic meetings. During Covid, they were my lifeline and kept me sane. I connected with one of my sponsees through an email meeting. She was in so much pain and desperate for a Sponsor. I prayed about it, and my Higher Power encouraged me to sponsor her.

It has been an amazing journey, and I’ve been so blessed to have her in my life. I have watched her grow and learn to trust, and I’ve gotten to hear about the miracles in her life. I got to meet and spend some time with her last summer and meet her family. What a blessing. We are working out of the workbook Reaching for Personal Freedom (P-92) and are in the middle of our Traditions. Her life has changed dramatically and so has mine. I love sponsorship and all that it has shown me. I love this program. Thank you for allowing me to share this miracle.
