RCA Trailblazers Service Rotation
There is a need for couples to fill Service positions: Welcome Couple as of February 23, 2025. Please consider giving service to your meeting. For information about service position responsibilities, please go to https://rcatrailblazers.org/info/
Do you wish to strengthen your coupleship recovery?
One of the proven ways to do so is to commit to a service position. Doing so will not only aid you in truly practicing step 12 and tradition 7 but offer an opportunity to apply unity within your coupleship and the RCA fellowship. You will connect with other couples in ways that would not otherwise be possible, you can have some fun and learn along the way. The time commitment can be anywhere from a few minutes to a couple of hours a week. Service is HOW we show our gratitude. Don’t know how: Loving guidance and mentorship is always available. Service can be fun, easy and the payoff beyond what you can imagine!
