We quote:
“Dear AA
Cultwatch,
…..... I
recently had a very bad experience going to meetings in Islington and
Bloomsbury not realising they were cult meetings and it made me angry
as it affected my feeling of safety in AA. The cult concerned is the
Vision For You cult. Historically, cults always thrive during a
recession. However I am very concerned that the Vision For You cult
are not only setting up their own meetings but also now taking over
large newcomers meetings that used to be ordinary, traditional ones.
I think they are making a play for central London.
The meetings concerned are:
Saturday 10.30am Angel Into Action : St Silas Church, Penton Street, N1. Definitely cult.
Friday 6pm Euston We Have A Solution: Lancing St, Euston, NW1. Definitely cult.
There are
two other meetings run by the same people which I need to check but
which I strongly believe are in the process of being taken over or
have already been taken over.
Wednesday 6pm Pass It On Newcomers: American Church, Tottenham Court Road, W1.
Thursday 7pm Bloomsbury Recovery: Bloomsbury Baptist Church, Shaftesbury Avenue, WC2
…..........
Best
wishes,
…...”

Comment:
Certainly the cult is not merely satisfied with promoting its own
grossly distorted 'AA message' via its own meetings but has for a
long time infiltrated regular AA groups to that end as well. The
solution lies of course as always in OUR HANDS. After all WE ARE
RESPONSIBLE …... aren't we?
