Hello Area 46! I am thankful for your approval to serve in the role of Technology Chair for the 2022-2023 rotation. We are seeking interested members to serve on the Technology Committee. There are many roles to fill, big and small, both virtually and on site at assemblies. If there is one thing I am certain of, it is that this job cannot be shouldered alone. I have some very big shoes to fill, but feel confident that with the help of a team, we will be able to face whatever challenges are on the horizon.
The year has started off with a bang! I’ve stayed busy gathering, testing, and organizing all of the hybrid equipment, setting up webmail, page update, and Zoom access for all of our new trusted servants, updating the website to reflect our new rotation in all officer, committee, and district pages, and purchasing sound equipment to improve our hybrid experience at assemblies.
I have been drinking through a firehose for the last few months, trying my best to absorb all of the information this job entails. Infinite thanks go to Kerri for the hours she spent orienting me to this new service role, and for her patience and loving acceptance – knowing I will find my way eventually.
My favorite part of this job so far has been delegating out 12th Step Call requests from alcoholics seeking help with their drinking problem, who contact us through our website. There is nothing that makes me feel more a part of this fellowship than helping connect a drunk to a sober drunk. Please keep an eye on your email, as I may be contacting you for support.
Our new website continues to be a rich resource for all of us in A.A. service. Take some time to explore both the public and service sites to see all dev.aa-nia.org has to offer. Be sure to check out Area 46 News, Quick Links, Assembly Info, Area Committee Info & Resources, District Info & Resources, and the Site Map links in the very bottom footer for a full list of tools.
