Prayer

Dear Lord, thank you for watching over me during this long travel to the north of FΒ³ Naperville. The ability to get up, roll out of bed, the courage to make good decisions that make us better. Thank you for the strength of FΒ³ Naperville, the strength of this brotherhood. Thank you for strong men that surround me here. We pray that we may stay strong through these times of uncertainty and stress. Please help remove the fear and give us guidance and give our leaders vision to get back to the known. Lord, please look over our cities and help level heads prevailπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡² Lord, we pray for Anna Caroline, Jeremy Baker and Randy Levine and Mr. Miyagi as they continue to battle cancer. Please give them the strength to get through the treatments and beat this disease. WetWipe FIl, who had surgery yesterday,Β  Zima’s Step brother and Alladin’s friend’s Laurie’s daughter

Naked Man Moleskin

It’s anniversary week at FΒ³ Naperville. I am honored to Q here at IL during this special week. I started my journey with FΒ³ March 19, 2019., I discovered something unique. Every man I met in the gloom is very positive, encouraging, helpful, different but very similar. It’s hard to describe to an outsider. It’s like that awesome youth sports team you were part of when you were young and couldn’t wait for school to end to get to practice. There’s just that unspoken friendliness and trust and bond. It’s obvious why we call each other brother.
Here we are in the middle of a pandemic and we’re ready and prepared. At least as much as we can be physically and mentally. FΒ³ helps me deal with the Fear and anxiety of the unknown. Tensions started to grow. The world is changing and I’m sure everyone agrees it isn’t changing for the better. I’m grateful for the brotherhood here and say thank you.
My FΒ³ brother RC says it well…I’m a little right and I’m a little wrong. You’re a little right and you’re a little wrong. There’s actually a lot of similarities if we just look hard enough
