Had enough Christmas? No? Have an AA meeting.
This page rebuilds a Christmas-season Dumaguete AA announcement from December 24, 2015. The original message reminded local AA members and visitors that meetings were available during the holiday period, even when shopping crowds, family plans, and Christmas noise were everywhere.
If the holidays are difficult, lonely, stressful, or just a little too festive, an AA meeting may be a good place to pause, listen, and be around people who understand.
