This was my last Q before moving to Greenville, SC. F3 has meant so much to me, and I’m blessed to be a part of such a great AO and region. I’m looking forward to coming back and visiting when I’m in town to visit my in-laws.

Prayer requests for different family members and a friend going through a life crisis. Pray that God brings his comfort and peace and uses these situations to bring people to himself.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
9 HIMs showed up to get better at JUCO this morning.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“WWJD” Many of us remember when the “What Would Jesus Do” fad happened in the 90’s. Although the fad was more about collecting bracelets and trying to look cool, the words are just as true today as they ever have been. We should consider this phrase every time we make a decision.

Romans 13:14

“But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.”

MOLESKIN:
Trolley’s beatdown on Wednesday was still fresh, so today’s workout was intended to allow each HIM to move at their own speed.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
None

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Matthew 5:43-48 – love your enemies as well as neighbors.  God doesn’t play favorites like we as humans tend to do sometimes.  Strive to be “perfect” like God and treat even our enemies with love and we might just win them over to follow the Lord.
MOLESKIN:
This workout was meant to be a pyramid, but due to YHC’s forgetfulness, no one had a chance.  YHC meant to have a nice large-print page with all the exercises written down so that everyone could move at their own pace.  Instead, we were limited to a cell phone.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:

None today.
