**Confidentiality and Anonymity are the cornerstone of our program. We ask that when you join the live stream, please refrain from tagging people or mentioning their name in the comment. And realize that many people from within and outside of our CR family may be joining in on the stream. This is a great time to invite people to get a 'taste' of our great CR community.

The purpose of CR is to fellowship and celebrate God’s healing power in our lives through the 12 steps and 8 recovery principles.

I will miss our weekly get-together and discussions but really believe that
it is a time to try and avoid any unnecessary community exposure until
we turn the corner on this virus. I will, of course, let you know as
soon as "the coast is clear" and we are ready to resume our weekly
meetings. In the meantime, blessings and good health to all of you.
Sincerely, Greg
