CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A lot of noise and drama happening in the world these days (gun control, Russia, (fill in blank here). We men of F3 should look at our lives and where our attention drifts and consider if we need to re-focus on leading our families and snuff out the noise. YHC challenged the PAX to analyze ourselves and make the necessary modifications. Our communities need strong men. Strong leaders. Strong husbands. Strong fathers.

PAX prayers lifted up.
MOLESKIN:
No amount of cantore was going to rain out the enthusiasm of these PAX. This AO is solid with leadership and ammenities.
