2026 New York Gratitude Breakfast

April 11, 2026 | 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM ET | Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church

"I try hard to hold fast to the truth that a full and thankful heart cannot entertain great conceits. When brimming with gratitude, one's heartbeat must surely result in outgoing love, the finest emotion we can ever know." 

AS BILL SEES IT, p. 37

There’s something powerful about pausing together to give thanks — for our lives, our recovery, and the people who walk this path with us. 

The New York Gratitude Breakfast is a morning set aside for community, reflection, and connection. Whether you’re newly finding your footing or have been walking in recovery for many years, this gathering is a chance to be in the same room, share a meal, and remember that none of us does this alone.

In recovery, gratitude isn’t about pretending life is easy — it’s about recognizing the gifts that show up even in the midst of struggle. This morning is an invitation to cultivate that grateful heart together.
