I hope everyone had the opportunity to participate in World Unity Day yesterday at 10:00am with a moment of silence and Serenity Prayer with our fellow addicts around the world.

Conference Participant Web Meeting and WSC

The WB presented 3 motions regarding the WSC which were discussed at length at our August CP web meeting. The 3^rd motion was eventually split off into a 4^th motion, so whether to address the Spiritual Principle a Day book could be voted on separately for essential business.

After the meeting, voting was done in the form of an electronic poll, sent out to RDs and voting ZDs. All 4 motions passed. I voted in favor of the first 3 motions and against pushing the SPAD book through in 2022 when motions, including CIRNA’s, from 2020 had still not been voted on.

I am including a pdf with all 4 motions in case anyone is interested. A brief summary of the motions:

1. Basically a vote to allow the WSC to meet and vote virtually.
2. Extend this conference cycle from 2020-2023 (a 3 year cycle instead of 2) with a shortened business meeting in 2022 to address business in motions 3 and 4
3. Conduct what is deemed essential business: Budget for 2022-23, extend FIPT moratorium by 1 year, adjust WSC terms of service for current servants by 1 year.
4. Vote on the Spiritual Principle a Day book

Based on the passage of all 4 motions, our CAR motion will not be addressed in 2022 and will be rolled over to the 2023 CAR. It is not currently clear whether we will need to resubmit for that CAR.

WSZF Special Meeting – Selection of host Region for 2022 WSZF

Arizona Region made a detailed presentation, with options in both Phoenix and Tuscon. Ultimately, Phoenix was voted on and selected by the committee for 2022. We will meet Thurs-Sun the last weekend in January, 2022.

BMLT

The BMLT is live and running. I have provided Tish with login information to edit meetings and am attempting to coordinate with Southwest Area to get the BMLT added to their site. Our BMLT is at www.cirna.org/meetings/
