7 HIM’s come out to Folsom this wet and dreary morning to go on a quest. That quest was to find the Folsom Chalice. The location of this treasure was unknown. What does the chalice look like? We did not know, but we were all up to the challenge and ready to put in some work.

The Thang

30 LBC’s at each light.
10 Big Boys to turn left
20 Merkins to turn right
30 Squats at the speed bump
Each PAX take a turn on the direction we go.

Then.. like a child at Christmas morning, Round Up is filled with joy as sees the chalice. He looks at YHC with the biggest smile. YHC tells him to go and retrieve his treasure.

With our quest completed and our hearts full of joy, together, we then completed the above again but in reverse back to the flag.

3 Pax arrived at the Sword where we read the Epistle of Jude. Take five minutes and read it!

There is nothing better than starting the week with the Word at the Sword.

The verse of the week:

Jude 1:22 – “And have mercy on those who doubt”

We ended with the COT and prayers for all of us.

We finish up with the COT. A nice word was provided by Gastone. He plugged the Q Source AO’s and the importance of them. All PAX need to do your best to get out to those AO’s whenever possible. It will make you accelerate faster in all the F’s.

It was a morning filled with Rudolph and Watts Up mubble chatter, crazy Bed Pan stories, and most importantly a group of men giving max effort to become better men.

Thank you for the opportunity to lead. Happy F3 Anniversary Bed Pan!
