COT: Shared about the time that I had a flat tire at the Equalizer. After the prayer, and without being asked, everyone pitched in and helped (although it was mainly Stripped and his pit crew expertise and equipment). The tire was changed in no time. No one left me behind to change the tire in the dark by myself. True HIMs indeed and in action, not just words and empty “ayes!”
