COT and Closing Prayer

Moleskin:

  • We raised up several friends struggling with what life is bringing – a late term still birth and a teenage son battling Leukemia.  Please keep them on your minds and in your prayers.
  • Thoughts towards the Raleigh PAC on the GoRuck challenge this past weekend.  Looking to hear how they enjoyed the pain.
  • The PAX exercised patience as YHC forgot his Q-card and had to improvise from memory on the exercises to follow.  Brought in a few new exercises that garnered laughter, and as always enjoyed the comments from the peanut gallery.
  • One FNG today may be regretting learning about Sisyphus.  Bob Vila is putting out a lot of EH.  Other PAX need to step up to keep on his recruiting pace.

CORRECTED, per Au Pair’s sage advice
