Push-ups are great exercise to build overall strength. I can do 10 of them!
Feel free to challenge me the next time you see me. (“Drop & Do 10, Warren G.”).
As Delegate I am responsible for strengthening our communications channel from our General Service Board to the Groups in Area 56. To that end, I am sending “Push-Up Emails” to Area 56 Trusted Servants.
Think of the Upside-Down Triangle. You can find it on Page 3 in the AA Service Manual.
Here is the communications channel:
(1) An email from the General Service Board is distributed (or pushed up) to the General Service Conference. The General Service Conference is made up of 93 Areas in the U.S. and Canada. Area 56, Southwest Ohio, is one Area and I am one of 93 Area Delegates who receives the email.
(2) As Delegate, I forward (or push up) that email to the next level above me, the Area 56 Assembly and Districts to the Area 56 Trusted Servants. The Trusted Servants that I am referring to are AAs that have committed to a General Service position with Area 56.
(3) The Area 56 Trusted Servants then spread (or push up) the information to the next level above them, the Group GSRs and finally to the A.A. Groups.
Help me get stronger. Challenge me to do push-ups. Help me strengthen communication throughout Area 56. Spread the information contained in my Push-Up Emails!
Service is where the fun starts!

“A.A.” = Alcoholics Anonymous while “AA” = Alcoholic in Action
“A.A.” is the common shortcut used when writing about Alcoholics Anonymous. In all our literature, when these initials are used when referring to Alcoholics Anonymous, it is printed “capital A period, capital A period”. Now what about “AA”?
