ANNOUNCEMENTS: Dad’s Camp, 2F Event

COT:
Dedicated to U.S. Sgt. Zachary D. Tellier, 31, of Charlotte, NC (USA) a combat infantryman with the 4th Squadron, 73rd Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, at Fort Bragg. He died Sept. 29, 2007, of wounds sustained while on a ground patrol in Afghanistan.
The previous April, Tellier’s unit was conducting a mounted patrol when one of its vehicles drove over and detonated a bomb, which set the vehicle on fire, according to a statement from the 82nd Airborne. Tellier pulled two paratroopers out of the vehicle to safety, suffering severe burns to his hands. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with valor for his actions.
After he was burned, Tellier jumped up in the turret to return fire, said Sgt. Michael Layton, a member of Tellier’s unit. A lieutenant made Tellier get out of the vehicle because of his injuries, Layton said. “Zachary Tellier has to be the biggest hero I’ve ever known or heard of, not just because of what he did, but because of his personality,” Layton said. “He came in the Army because he wanted to be around soldiers and serve his country, and he paid the ultimate sacrifice.”

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

1. 2.0 Workout will slide to another weekend due to nearly everyone being out of town or committed to something on May 20. Look for separate message in channel. 2. Only 3 weeks left till the Murph!
3. Rocketman is helping PAX in the Blueridge Region to plant new flags in Middleburg and Berryville.

COT:
Talked about F3, core principles, etc.

(This message loosely taken from a past sermon but seemed appropriate based on conversations tonight)

Have integrity
Do not attempt to compartmentalize your life and let sin enter into one area of your life and expect everything to be OK as long as that part of your life doesnt affect all the others. (Heavy drinking, porn, lying to your boss, courting a co-worker as a married man, etc) This is the Titanic myth.

The Titanic was designed with multiple isolated chambers to allow it to float if the hull was breached and any two of its chambers were flooded.

Same goes for your life. Wear the shield of God with you always, do not let sin sneak in and takeover any part of you. The part you try to compartmentalize will eventually flood, fill-up, and will take the rest of you down.

Have integrity in all that you do, in all aspects of your life. Be whole.
