One of the great benefits of Fellowship Connection is this rapid and
ongoing exchange of accurate group information and
communications that connect us. The goal is to facilitate data
stewardship in Area 53. Of course, this is to help us effectively meet
our great responsibility : “When anyone, anywhere reaches out for
help, we want the hand of A.A. always to be there. And, for that: We
are responsible!”
