NMM:
Most PAX got 4-5 rounds in and some started on 6.
Felt like we had a true 3S2T workout today. BigStick loves Ring Of Fire. Faulkner has a super creepy ‘stache. Floppy Disk is a stud. PSL can kick everyone’s ass even w a bum K’nee. So great to have the one and only Grease Trap back in the game. Big Perm’s perm ain’t that big no mo.
Many thanks to BS for asking me to Q. It was a lot of fun as usual.

BH:
The Martin Family
Ludwig and his children
CCR mentioned an unnamed family facing a cancer diagnosis.

Prayers for Toga’s friend’s family dealing with his sudden death from heart attack.  Remember our hope is not optimism or a wish, but it is grounded in the reality of what Jesus has accomplished in his life, death and resurrection, so we wait with patience for the culmination.

Always an honor,
