All made it through successfully. Upon arriving to the hill, we completed a modified Heartbreak 1,2,3, renamed more appropriately to 808’s and Heartbreak after the Kayne West album

With five minutes remaining, PAX grabbed a CMU for 2 minutes of wall sits, with presses (vertical) and pushes (horizontal) mixed in. After 2 minutes, there was 2 minutes of protractors with crunches mixed in. The final minute was spent back on the wall with presses.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

COVID has been a frustrating season for all of us. F3 is not only a community for fitness, but also a community to push ourselves to be better men and make a difference in our communities. A verse on my heart recently is Ephesians 4:31-32:

‘Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with malice. Be kind to one another, tender-hearted and forgiving each other, just as God in Christ has also forgiven you’

MOLESKIN:
We welcomed a new member to the F3 family: Pinocchio’s son Grant was born Friday! Wife and baby are doing well.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We are often overwhelmed with the feeling that we need to “win” in life but are repeatedly frustrated with things out of our control (like pandemics and hurricanes).  A verse from one of my favorite songs at church reminds me of the truth: “The Lamb has overcome, the Lamb has overcome. The battle is done and the victory is won. The Lamb has overcome.” Christ has already won the battle for us. He has won the ultimate victory against our ultimate enemy (sin and death)! We are called to trust him and be faithful, not victorious.

Galatians 6:2

“Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you fulfill the law of Christ”

Many are struggling through tough times. We are called upon to help carry each other’s burdens. Help your fellow brothers when it is needed if you have the means to do so. Never be afraid to be the one to reach out and ask for help. F3 is an enormous resource for the community with an endless amount of connections if you or your family are in need of help.
