F3 Poker – Divide into 2 teams. Each team comes forward to play a hand of blackjack. If either player busts, it’s 20 burpees. Otherwise, the winning card of the winning hand dictates the exercise and the count is whatever the total hand value that won was – we did clubs – wide push-ups, spade would have been triangle pushups, hearts was big boy sit-ups, diamonds was LBCs but I would do flutter kicks or bonnie blairs for that next time. Ricky Bobby Around the School
Wall sit. Each of us counted to 10. Some of us counted really slowly to embrace the suck.
MARY: N/A – Ended up skipping Mary and doing a few stretches so that our legs didn’t seize up after the wall sits. I’ll work in more Mary next time.

COT:
Jesus said, “come to me all who are weary and heavy-laden and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). There are a lot of people carrying heavy burdens right now for family and friends we know, and perhaps for ourselves. We are invited to not carry those alone but to give them over to Christ. The Apostle Paul said, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13). Let’s give over the things we are carrying, those concerns and big decisions, to God.
We prayed silently, then named people whom we are holding in our prayers, and lastly, we prayed by name for each other. May God strengthen us who are carrying heavy things (like coupons).
