• Thank you to Genie for introducing a moment of reflection into our AO. After being inspired by his attendance of a 3rd F shield event yesterday he brought a little more worship to our 1st F event.  Today’s reflections:
  • Dirty thankful for being given 49 LONG years and having been blessed with an amazing family and community of friends to share life with.
  • Genie thankful for the brotherhood we have in our F3 community and how much it is doing in all of our lives to make us better men.
