District 25 AA Groups (Jan 2024
Welcome to District 25 AA
District 25 is located in the Northwestern section of Philadelphia, PA and comprises parts of Andorra, Chestnut Hill, East Falls, Germantown, Manayunk, Mt. Airy, Oak Lane, Olney and Roxborough neighborhoods. District 25 meetings are held monthly, on the first Tuesday, to discuss issues relevant to AA general service as well as issues confronting the individual local groups. These meetings provide a forum for communication between General Service Representatives (GSR's) and the District Committee Member (DCM). GSRs bring group considerations to the attention of the DCM and the DCM brings issues discussed at the Area level that are relevant to AA as a whole to the attention of the GSR's. The District Meeting is key to proper communication between the Area Delegate, the General Service Conference, and the individual group member.
Third Legacy of Service

“Our Twelfth Step—carrying the message—is the basic service that the A.A. Fellowship gives; this is our principal aim and the main reason for our existence. Therefore, A.A. is more than a set of principles; it is a society of alcoholics in action. We must carry the message, else we ourselves can wither and those who haven’t been given the truth may die. Hence, an A.A. Service is anything whatever that helps us to reach a fellow sufferer – ranging all the way from the Twelfth Step itself to a ten-cent phone call and a cup of coffee, and to A.A. ’s General Service Office for national and international action. The sum of all these services is our Third Legacy of Service.”
