alcoholics who might be glad to have what had been so freely given me. Perhaps

In
1990 Earl L., a Paiute Indian had a vision. Earl saw in the vision Indian
Nations coming together in unity, celebrating sobriety and embracing their
culture. He saw the helping hand of AA as being attractive within Indian
Country. Earl’s vision saw our traditional ways as adding to the warmth and
unconditional love of AA’s principals.
