Wednesday Morning Al-Anon Family Group Meeting

10:30 a.m. Wednesday Sacred Heart Catholic Church classrooms

4505 Elizabeth St., Texarkana, Texas

We are friends and family members of alcoholics and drug users. We have weekly programs designed to engage our members. Membership is free. Al-Anon is strictly anonymous. Parking is in the second parking lot behind the church.

Many who come to Al-Anon/ Alateen are in despair, feeling hopeless, unable to believe that things can ever change. We want our lives to be different, but nothing we have done has brought about change. We all come to Al-Anon because we want and need help.

In Al-Anon and Alateen, members share their own experience, strength and hope with each other. You will meet others who share your feelings and frustratio­ns, if not your exact situation. We come together to learn a better way of life, to find happiness whether the alcoholic is still drinking or not.
