9 PAX posted for the final month of 2023 NY resolution check-ins. All in all, YHC thinks it was a successful endeavor and we will run it back in 2024 with a few tips and tricks learned in 2023. T-claps to all the PAX for their participation, whether it was every month or only one time. While definitely meant to be light-hearted, these workouts (and resolutions) still allow for accountability and quick little reminders as we look to achieve betterment.

The 9 PAX in attendance were then were asked one by one if they completed their resolutions over the last month and then over the course of 2023. Depending on answers burpees and other exercises were performed. We finished up and went back to SF for 5 sprints and 3 MoM.

Count-a-rama, Name-a-rama, Announcements, Prayer requests, prayer devo
Announcements: TP helping a family in need during Christmas- get with Wapner ASAP; Christmas Nativity Ruck 12/23

Devo: Genesis 4, verse 7- If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.”
It isn’t enough to just not be entering into sin. Sin is coming for us, we must be ready to be able to fend off sin.
