Yay! Try to not be nervous. I've always found that everyone is always really nice. They will probably ask if anyone is at their first meeting... you can say your name or not. Totally up to you. They only ask to get to know you, not to call you out.
I had a lot of problems with the whole higher power thing. They really do mean it when they say you can use the group as a whole or even a doorknob or a tree as your higher power. It doesn't have to be some ethereal being you can't see or touch.
