December 2022 at 6:48 am #45977Jenny TeetersModeratorHere are a few suggestions for finding a sponsor:
– In meetings that you attend, its very appropriate to share in the chat or aloud that you are looking for a sponsor
– To be more specific, if there is a particular person that you see and hear and would like to have a conversation about sponsorship, you can ask to have a chat
– You can alert your Catholic in Recovery leader that you are looking for a sponsor and he/she can offer support by connecting with other Advocates in Catholic in RecoveryYou’re most welcome to message me as well and I would be very happy to help you in your search. jennyteeters@gmail.com or txt 916-612-0337

JennyJune 2023 at 5:51 am #47325Charles TroutParticipantGood morning Jenny,
My name is Charles and I was at the conference last weekend in Alabama. I wasn’t in Alabama for that reason it just showed up and so I attended a good part of it. I’ve just registered online today and I met a guy there named Mike and a gal named Barbara who I believe, brought the conference there. A few few others from the Hanceville area who are starting a meeting. I would like to get in touch with these folks. Maybe you could help me out there. I could not stay for the final registrations because I had other business to attend at St.bernards monastery. It was a very nice group of people, and I truly felt they were all very sincere, with what was being said.
Anyway, if you could help me out, this is my information to email and I will be in Alabama tomorrow for the weekend. I live 100 miles in Georgia but I’m there pretty regular for religious reasons obviously. Trying to get to and authentic Catholic life again.
Many blessings today, my friend.
Peacefully, CharlesJuly 2023 at 11:37 am #47482Celeste RobichauxParticipantLucy, I know I am late to the dance seeing your message looking for a sponsor. I hope you have found a sponsor by now, but if not, I am willing to sponsor you. I am a recovering sugar addict myself. Reply here or text me at 985-860-8288 if you still need a sponsor.

August 2023 at 1:29 pm #47830Lisa RobinsonParticipantCeleste, I’m new to the group here at CIR. Are you part of one of the online group meetings? I am struggling with sweets and overeating them. I’m looking for a group that addresses that kind of addiction. Thank you so much for any info you may have!
August 2023 at 8:08 pm #47836Celeste RobichauxParticipantLisa,
Yes, I have a Zooom CIR workbook group, and we are all dealing with food issues. However, we are already on step 7. I suggest you join the new Living the Steps offering. There will be breakouts by gender and addiction type.
There is also a Sunday evening group for women with food issues.
If you need help, I’ll be happy to sponsor you. We can work through the steps together. I am a recovering sugar addict.
Blessings,
