CoT
YHC shared that I didn’t have a grand message — but as I was putting the workout together (heavily stolen from the F3 Social Distancing twitter account) there was a feeling of self consciousness and realization of my accountability to the group. When I signed up to Q I am making myself accountable to F3 Jax and the Pax that decide to come out. That realization needs to carry over to other aspects of life. We’re accountable to our families, our communities (as the mission states), our pax.
Announcements and Prayer requests: Happy Birthday McFly! Prayers for Fifty Cent’s brother in law and father in law, for peace and guidance and help overcoming despair, and a young woman Culpepper’s 2.0 is friend’s with who is battling cancer at the age of 19. Also for those traveling and other unspoken prayers. Thankful for the opportunity to lead. Close with Pledge of Allegiance.
