Murmuration



Overeaters Anonymous 
is a Fellowship of individuals
who, through shared experience,
strength, and hope, are recovering
from compulsive overeating.
We welcome everyone
who wants to stop eating compulsively.
There are no dues or fees for members;
we are self-supporting
through our own contributions,
neither soliciting nor accepting
outside donations.
OA is not affiliated
with any public or private organization,
political movement, ideology,
or religious doctrine;
we take no position
on outside issues.
Our primary purpose
is to abstain from
compulsive eating
and compulsive food behaviors
and to carry the message of recovery
through the Twelve Steps of OA
to those who still suffer.
Murmuration.
he act of murmuring
the utterance
of low continuous sounds
or complaining noises.
How did you feel when you came to OA?
Did the long readings seem strange?
Remember. Always.
Welcome the newcomer,
answer their questions,
be a friendly face,
a person to hug...or not...
as needed.
