Mark your calendars! On Friday, May 9th, 2026 we gather at the Hellenic Event Centre at 1315 Prince of Wales Drive, to celebrate recovery, fellowship, and spiritual growth. Tickets will go on sale in the coming months.
The Big Book describes how we once reached for help “with all the desperation of drowning men,” never imagining that what first appeared fragile would become a lifeline — a loving and powerful hand pulling us into a new way of life. Many of us arrived in A.A. simply looking for relief, but what we found was far deeper: a design for living that truly works.
TOGETHER WE GROW speaks to what recovery makes possible when we do it side by side:
- We grow in honesty when we tell the truth about ourselves.
- We grow in connection when we stop trying to recover alone.
- We grow in freedom when we discover purpose through service.
- We grow in gratitude when we see transformation in each other.
This conference is an invitation to deepen that growth:
a day of shared experience, strength, and hope — of unity, laughter, storytelling, fellowship, and spiritual renewal.
Whether you are new to A.A., returning after time away, or long-established in sobriety, you belong here. Bring your curiosity, your willingness, your open heart. Come as you are — because none of us grows alone.
We look forward to welcoming you in Ottawa on May 9th.
Yours in Love and Service,
2026 Ottawa Spring Conference Committee
