About the Fellowship of the Spirit Conference

The Fellowship of the Spirit Conference has its roots in a small community of recovered Alcoholics and Al-Anons who live along the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains.

In 1992, through informal discussions and gatherings, a community took shape around a vision of carrying the basic message of Alcoholics Anonymous to families and individuals affected by the disease of alcoholism.

This community asked the following questions:

• Do we believe in the basic message of Alcoholics Anonymous as described in the Big Book?
• Do we think a lot of alcoholics and Al-Anons have not heard the basic message?
• Are we willing to build a community that broadcasts a solution that works, through an organized conference?
• Do we believe we can we touch many lives by simply sharing our experience?

We answered "yes" to all the questions.

So began a long journey of becoming more connected with God and with each other. Every year the conference grows larger as more families get involved. We have seen both newcomers and old timers transformed by making personal commitments to the conference and to carrying the basic message.

Best of all, every year brings a new team of volunteers together, whose "blood, sweat and tears" make the conference possible. Every year, new personalities and new vision fill the community as we join together with a great sense of alignment and purpose.
