2. Okay - where do you find these prayers?
My primary program is Al Anon, but over the past few serenity-gone-out-the-window months I've been attending 3-4 Open A.A. meetings each week and I keep hearing people talking about the 3rd step prayer and now you are writing about the 11th step prayer -- are these in the A.A. Twelve & Twelve? I have a copy of Twelve & Twelve and the Big Book and the Daily Reflections and As Bill Sees It and Came to Believe and I read them all, but I have only read the first 3 steps of the Twelve & Twelve carefully and I feel like I am not catching onto everything.

I don't have an A.A. sponsor because I am not an alcoholic.

The power source - my connection to my higher power - is in the rooms of both A.A. and Al Anon, but the power in A.A. is HUGE. Working the steps with people who are working them as if their lives depend on it is intense and wonderful. Many people in Al Anon work the steps to make their lives better but they aren't working them as if their lives depend on them. So...

Where do I find the step prayers?
