COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA 
31 PAX including one FNG: Kyle Baisley email: [email protected]
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Discussed how we all face suffering in this life and that just like going up and down cardiac it can be very difficult. On cardiac we could persevere because we had brothers pushing us and encouraging us and we knew the workout was going to end. In life as Christians we endure suffering and face many trials. We are able to face these trials because we have hope in eternity with Christ and we have other Christian brothers and sisters who help encourage us and carry these burdens. Encouraged the PAX to go out and help carry burdens of those suffering and to remind those suffering of the fact that we have an eternal hope and that their suffering won’t last forever.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Discussed the need to fight for faith in God just like we fight to get better at other areas of our life, fitness, family, job, etc. Sometimes we may not feel like fighting for faith but just like we had to fight to make it up the hill in DORAS we need to fight to believe in God’s promises.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Share today about working in faith. It is easy to think about achieving in terms of oneself. I did this or I did that and this happened or that will happen. But just like the farmer who plants we cannot control the out come…only God can. We must work in faith for God!
