The 12 Steps and Balance in Our Lives
With Sr. Linda Fischer, ASC
October 23 - 25, 2026
During this weekend we will talk about ‘living’ the Steps instead of ‘working’ the Steps. As a result of this, we will be able to look at our lives as women in recovery and see if our lives are in balance – which is one of the main goals of our sobriety.
Check-in begins Friday at 4:30 PM, with a welcome buffet at 5:30 PM. The retreat concludes on Sunday at 11:00 AM.
Enders Island has long been steeped in the traditions and spirituality of the Twelve Step Program which had it’s beginnings in 1935 with the birth of AA. Our Recovery Retreats provide a unique opportunity for individuals to encounter and accompany one another as a recovery community seeking to live out the twelve steps, with particular emphasis on the eleventh step:
“We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood God, praying for the knowledge of God’s will for us and for the power to carry that out.”
