CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I have been challenged at work recently with an expectation additional leadership. Basically, have to figure out what I need to be doing on the fly. I have come to see the correlation of this to life in general. We say a lot: “Embrace the suck” but we should also include “Embrace the challenge”. Today’s PAX embraced the challenges that were thrown at them and excelled. HUGE shout out to everyone for encouraging those thrust into these positions this morning.

MOLESKIN:

Praise for prayers answered:

Waxjob has a contract on his house!!!

My father has had some heart trouble recently and we got some good news this week. Diagnosis isn’t as dire as originally suspected but still serious. Thanks to all the prayer warriors, it was drastically impactful and immensely appreciated.

Prayers needed:

Family that @Bartman works with had an unexpected death in the family. It’s hard to lose someone but especially hard when that family should have had a much longer time with them.

Waxjob needs a place to live for a month. If you know anyone that can rent a spot for a month, let him know.

Hardship Hill is coming up. Team Dog Bite is ready to get after it.
