The Matt Talbot
Retreat Movement, Inc.
Group Forms and Informaion
• We are a group
of recovering alcoholics who have recognized the need for
help from a power greater than ourselves.
•
We are tired of being belligerent, vindictive, intolerant,
anxious and full of self-pity. We use the Matt Talbot spiritual
retreat to seek the solution.
•
We use the spiritual retreat weekend to find out how to utilize
the tools suggested in the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions
of Alcoholics Anonymous. However, we are not affiliated with
AA. or any other 12-step program.
•
We have found that Matt Talbot spiritual retreats have helped
us to practice the steps and achieve a greater degree of serenity
and joy in our daily lives.
•
We have chosen Matt Talbot as our example. We have chosen
him because he went to any lengths to be relieved from alcoholism,
and he practiced a set of principles similar to those found
in the twelve steps.
•
Because the Roman Catholic Church is considering Matt Talbot
for sainthood, we have decided to help that process in any
way we can. However, we are not affiliated with the Catholic
religion.
•
Our retreats are non-denominational, any recovering alcoholic
is welcome.
•
Our primary purpose is to offer a quiet weekend of experience,
strength and hope to relieve the attitude problems that we
face in ourselves as we recover.
