Sign up for Ft Mill Care Center Lawn Duty. It’s summertime and the grass is growing. Get a partner and get it done – easy duty. Tortoise and Hare this weekend and Hog and Coyote (Rock Hill) next weekend for you CSAUP enthusiasts. Read your newsletter!

COT:
Prayers for family traveling, praise for young children’s birthdays.

Each AO has a distinct vibe. Slow Burn has a relaxed vibe because it’s well-lit, it’s moderate, which encourages (I think) more mumble chatter, and it’s on Fridays so the Pax are excited for the weekend ahead. It’s usually a fun workout and even more fun to Q it. I enjoyed the Q this morning, and I met some guys today in person, who I have only seen on Slack video (<@U07LMG5PDQU>, <@U08BNRBQ9D1>). The pax were in good spirits, and it was a pleasure to lead them. The rain stayed at bay, but we did have <@U08G28Z7E> today (see how I did that). Thank you again, <@U04M7P605SM> for the invite, and I look forward to the next one.
