Three-Year Anniversary COT

Thank you to Dredd and OBT for recognizing men in need of an organization like F3 and to capitalize on it. Thank you to Moses for bringing F3 to Lake Norman and the OG, including Callahan, for nurturing and sharing it. Thanks to Skipper and Ruffles for EH’ing me to come to the launch of the Mighty Jungle at St. Mark’s three years ago. Thank you to our wives and families who endure all the early alarm clocks and sweaty, muddy laundry as we do this regularly. Thank you Lord for ten years ago delivering my first born– the best Valentine’s gift ever. He and his sisters continue to teach me every day as much or more than I teach them. Thank for the frequent reminder that F3 provides of those who are protecting our freedoms—the untold sacrifices made by those near and far—to ensure we continue to enjoy liberty. Thank you to F3 for increasing my compassion for my fellow man and constant reminders of how blessed we are. Dear Lord, please turn this shared gratitude outwardly into this troubled world so that we are  a beacon of hope for all those in need. Amen.
