WHAT I LEARNED: This wallet card came out 15 years after Alateen was started – when they hit the 1,000 groups milestone. It’s similar to the “Just for Today” Alateen bookmark version (item # M-13), with the exception of one word at the end of the “Thank You God” prayer: Amen. I rarely ever hear this word in meetings & it struck me that I don’t think I’ve ever come across “amen” in any of our other literature. But after closer inspection I now see it in all our books — hidden in the word “amends.”
Wow, I didn’t realize this. This is so cool. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. 🙂
It’s funny how a simple wallet card can turn out to reveal so much!
