ANNOUNCEMENTS

A few PAX interested in buying F3 gear.  Funyuns noted the importance of sizing up.  We prayed for Harvey and Irma victims, the Kemps, and for God to continue to bless us and our families as we seek to serve Him.

 

It was an honor Qing this morning.  As I thought about the workout, I couldn’t help but think of all the people in the aftermath of the storms that have hit our coasts lately.  They are having to persevere and endure the trauma of putting their lives back together.  As we kept moving today, I was reminded that we are training our bodies, minds, and souls to persevere no matter what comes our way.  (A little 3rd F for you on this rainy day).
