Moleskin:

Great job today gents. Thanks to Turnpike for allowing YHC to Q. All Pax crushed it in the cold gloom. We were able to warm up in the restroom. We played a variety on random playlist songs. Some songs made us want to destroy things, others made us want to cry, others brought back memories from Proms of days past. YHC avoided looking into Freedom’s eyes during Patty Cake Merkins (look away-point of no return). Oh, and Gambini will do anything for love.

 

 

COT/Prayer Requests:

-Remember The Force’s mother, Libby, who is battling cancer

Reminder:

The F3 mission statement is “to plant, grow, and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership”. 

F3 5 Core Principles:

Workouts …

• Are free of charge
• Are open to all men
• Are held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
• Are led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary
• End with a Circle of Trust

There are plenty of Q slots at all AO’s. Please sign up. For new Pax, volunteer to lead/Q (we’ll help you co-Q). For you seasoned guys, sign up for some Q’s.

Invite a FNG or brother you haven’t seen in a while who’s a Kotter. Invite that #just1 who needs you more than you know (an invitation is a powerful thing brothers). If none of those work for you, just show up. No one will be left behind, but it all starts with the discipline to take one.

 

Until next time…
