ANNOUNCEMENTS:

The Q decided to pivot off his planned COT as he had done throughout the whole Q and said the following: Like life this Q required adaptation. We don’t know the future and like raising kids, working with unruly colleagues or demanding Pax at a morning beat down, we must learn to adapt. We aren’t professionals at this. The only tools we have are what has been provided to us. Start with love your God and second love your neighbor as yourself. This requires we extend grace to our neighbor even when we may not want to. But if we follow these, may they guide us as we deal with unpleasant pax or unruly kids or co-workers who just can’t adult today or financial conditions we didn’t expect.
