THE LEADERSHIP TEAM

Nathan B.
Servant Leader / Alcoholic / Addict
My name is Nathan. I've been blessed with 15 years of freedom from all drugs including alcohol. I found freedom by actively working the 12 steps, the fellowship of AA/NA, the help/accountability of several men in the local fellowships and community and above all my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. God has worked a miracle in my life and I am confident His desire is to work a miracle in the lives of all who are willing to honestly seek Him

Joshua Putnam
Servant Leader
My name is Joshua P. and I surrendered my marijuana addiction to the Highest Power, the Lord Jesus Christ, on June 10, 2023. The smoke and alcohol had been my losing war, although for quite some time I had put down the bottle and served only marijuana.
Although I had been raised in the faith, it was the diving into A.A., as a desperate man, that I found my faith! I then found myself a sponsor who had a sponsor. The Bible verse from Jeremiah 29:11 I now see, "For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."
Then, coming to Recovery Church Centralia/Olympia, I, along with some others, completed all the 12 Steps the way that Clarence Snyder, who was alcoholic number forty, had done and who was sponsored by Dr. Bob.
I did this Step Work when I went through "The Came To Believe Recovery Workbook," our recovery legacy, a 12 Step Guide for those who want to recover, "a simple kit of spiritual tools" based on the founding principles of Alcoholics Anonymous.
I jumped into service work to stay plugged in a little over nine months ago at my Twelve Step home group. Then, the closer I drew to God, I started feeling a pulling on my heart strings, feeling compelled to join R.C. Centralia and Olympia. I'm now doing service as a servant leader and administrating our social media that I’m blessed to manage.
This has taken my love for Facebook to higher levels as I’m now doing this for the King of Kings, Jesus.
I love to sponsor, showing others the path taken from the Biggest Book that the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous used for the Twelve Steps. They were taken from chapters 5-7 in Matthew, the complete book of James, and 1 Corinthians 13.
My favorite hobby is fishing, so it was a natural that my life verse comes from clear direction from Mark 1:17, which is now my biggest passion. "Jesus called out to them, “Come, follow me, and I will show you how to fish for people!” So, let’s all go fishing!!!
