Pastor Brian Matthew Markle’s journey

By / / Pastor Brian Matthew Markle’s journey to sobriety is a testament to resilience and dedication. He has been sober for many years, a journey that began with his commitment to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). His former sponsor, Tom Deafy, played a significant role in his recovery, always encouraging him with the mantra, “One Day at a Time.” Markle’s path wasn’t easy. He faced numerous challenges, but his determination to overcome his addiction and his faith in the support system provided by AA helped him stay on track. His experience has made him a compassionate and understanding leader, especially in his role at Sobriety Camp, where he helps others find their way to sobriety. In addition to his work at the camp, Markle’s involvement in the Residential School Hearing in 2016, where he supported Deafy against a nun from the Catholic Church who had abused him, highlights his commitment to justice and healing. This experience further strengthened his resolve to help others and advocate for those who have suffered. Markle’s journey is a powerful example of how perseverance, support, and a strong community can lead to lasting change and recovery.
