How the Twelve Concepts of OA Service can help us going through our daily life!
"The ultimate responsibility and authority for OA world services reside in the collective conscience of our whole Fellowship." & "The OA groups have delegated to World Service Business Conference the active maintenance of our world services; thus, World Service Business Conference is the voice, authority and effective conscience of OA as a whole."
"Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, films, television and other public media of communication." & "Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all these Traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities."
"OA, as such, ought never be organized; but we may create service boards or committees directly responsible to those they serve." & "Overeaters Anonymous has no opinion on outside issues; hence, the OA name ought never be drawn into public controversy."
“Every OA group ought to be fully self-supporting, declining outside contributions.” & “Overeaters Anonymous should remain forever non-professional, but our service centers may employ special workers.”
“Each group has but one primary purpose – to carry it's message to the compulsive overeater who still suffers.” & “An OA group ought never endorse, finance or lend the OA name to any related facility or outside enterprise, lest problems of money, property and prestige divert us from our primary purpose.”
“The only requirement for OA membership is a desire to stop eating compulsively.” & “Each group should be autonomous except in matters affecting other groups or OA as a whole.”
“Our common welfare should come first; personal recovery depends upon OA unity.” & “For our group purpose there is but one ultimate authority – a loving God as He may express Himself in our group conscience.Our leaders are but trusted servants; they do not govern.”
"Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics and to practice these principles in all our affairs."
"Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him"
"Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it."
"Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others."
"Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all."
"Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character." & "Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings."
“Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.”
"Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves."
