In addition to the readings we use for these meetings, there are other resources available on our website at MondayMen.org. Including information on joining our texting group. Some guys are active in the group daily and others when there's a need, but it's a good place for check-ins with your brothers during the week.

​

• There are links to the newsletters of S meeting service organizations.

• Ways to participate in paying the bills associated with our meeting, such as the website and zoom subscriptions.

• And some information about this meeting and resources from past meetings.

TOPIC DISCUSSION

Participation in our discussion time is open to everyone.

In this meeting, we use the word "I" instead of "you" when sharing about recovery.

• We address our sharing to the whole group, not to one or more individuals.

• We avoid mentioning specific names or places associated with our acting out behavior.

• In order to provide a safe environment for everyone, we avoid cross-talk in our meetings. We define Cross-talk as interrupting someone when they are sharing, making a comment specific to what someone else shares, or talking to someone directly in the meeting.

• We also avoid excessive detailing of our acting-out behaviors.
   

And remember, our focus remains on the solution rather than the problem. We will stop the sharing and go to check-in around 5:15.

Does anyone have a recovery topic for discussion?

​

[someone suggests a topic, then...]

​

Thank you for the topic of... (restate as you understand the topic).

​​

The floor is now open.

​

CHECK-IN (about 5:15)

It's time for check-in.

Each person is encouraged to share as much or as little as they like, using the following outline:

• how our addiction has manifested in our lives,

• how long we have been sober from sexually acting out, and

• what is going on in our life that impacts our recovery.

(We will open the breakout rooms now, and will bring us all back together in about 15 minutes when we'll close today's meeting.)

• Who would like to check in first?

OR

• We'll now break into small groups and come back together in about 12 minutes.

CLOSING

​

Remember, this is a closed meeting for sex addicts.

What you hear here, whom you see here, when you leave here, leave it here! [Here, Here!]

A thought for the day... 

I am but one, but I am one;

I can’t do everything, but I can do SOMETHING;

What I can do, I ought to do,

What I ought to do, with the help of my brothers and my creator,

I WILL DO.

​

Please join me now for the WE version of the Serenity Prayer...

​

[Together] God, grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change, the courage to change the things we can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

​

Keep coming back.

It works, if you work it,

because you're worth it.
