Transition to Lake: Indian Race Run

The indian race run is like the indian run but with two races added. The last person in line sprints up to front and back to back and keeps going around back up to the front. So each person does two loops around the train. When that sprinter gets to the back the first time, the next person in line races him back up to the top. Upon reaching the beginning the first person stops and the second person begins his loop to the back where the next last person will race him up to the top. (Repeat).

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
33 HIMs at JUCO.  Welcome FNG, Hound Dog!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Proverbs 28:23 – “He who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor than he who flatters with the tongue.”  Confrontation is sometimes a difficult thing to overcome, but sugar-coating the truth may be worse.  Correcting a brother, may help him to direct him back to the right path and may help save their soul.  As a result, a stronger, more meaningful relationship may flourish.
MOLESKIN:
It was great to get to Q once again at JUCO.  It is amazing what a year has brought to this AO!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
you may not always understand someones path, and seeking out to understand their path may not work.  But know that the lord put you in that individuals path for a reason.  you are given a choice just as everyone else is.  What will you do with your choice.

 

I call to mind the merciful story of God’s love that we heard today in a spiritual retreat for the clergy.   the Priest speaker said that God knows the struggle of those who are addicted.   He knows that their efforts are flawed and weak.   God also knows that with-in the fog of confusion, there is a soul crying to God for his help.  Like the good thief on the cross, you son will have the chance to hear the words, “Today, you will be with me in paradise.”

-Fr. Val Bartek

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
19 HIMs tackled Mt. JUCOnte in the pouring rain. 2 FNGs defied all odds to come out on a rainy, cold day. Welcome Tinker Bell and White Noise!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
As we start a new year, reflect on your commitments in 2019 and learn to say “No” to those that don’t benefit more than just you. In 2020, my goal is to say “No” to those things that only benefit me and take time/passion away from my faith and my family.
MOLESKIN:
Shoutout to Tinker Bell and White Noise for making the HC to come out on such a nasty day. I felt bad having their first Q be such a grinder, but they both killed it.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Hardship Hill – Mandolin has stepped up to design the obstacles that JUCO will be building for race day. Let’s work with him on collecting the needed materials. Keep an eye out for a future workday to get the obstacles built.
