Concept 1 & 2 - Guest Speaker Beth B.
"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."
Tradition 11 & 12 - Guest speaker Pat OC
"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."
Tradition 9 & 10 - Guest speaker Penny C
- "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."
Tradition 7 & 8 - Guest speaker Samantha
“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.”
Tradition 5 & 6 - Guest speaker Carol T.
“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.”
Tradition 3 & 4 - Guest speaker Lawrie C.
“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.”
Tradition 1 & 2 - Guest speaker Debbie H.
“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.”
Step 12 - Guest speaker Patrick B.
"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."
Step 11 - Guest speaker Sandy C.
"Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him"
Step 10 - Guest speaker Marcela M.
"Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it."
Step 9 - Guest speaker Harlan G.
"Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others."
Step 8 - Guest speaker Larry K.
"Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all."
Step 6 & 7 - Guest speaker Pete B.
"Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character." & "Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings."
Step 5 - Guest speaker Janet B.
“Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.”
Step 4 - Guest speaker Susan G.
"Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves."
Step 3 - Guest speaker Roy L.
“Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.”
Step 2 - Guest speaker Melissa C.
