12 PAX left the comfort of their fart sack and air-conditioned homes to post in the mid-summer’s gloom at Anchor. YHC was very fortunate to have made this morning’s beatdown. YHC was running just a tad bit late, but managed to make it with time to spare, which is quite an accomplishment when waking up at 4:54 AM in Fleming Island. The PAX were not as fortunate as YHC decided to dust off the cobwebs and bring back an oldie but a goodie for this beatdown, and one that brought immediate groans from the PAX: it’s the (Un-)Lucky Horseshoe. Saddle up because here we go.

COT/BOM
Continuing our theme for the month, service, YHC reminded the PAX that, in order to serve, we all must be prepared. We exercise to be prepared to serve physically, but often forgotten is being mentally and spiritually prepared. One of the best ways to prepare ourselves spiritually is through prayer or reflection. Asking the Lord to send his Spirit to mentally and spiritually strengthen us, to give us courage to serve, the knowledge and wisdom to know whom and when to serve, as well as the perseverance to continue to serve our families and community.
