Leap weekend over Labor day was one of the most incredible times of my life. I learned about team support and encouragement with a new understanding. Doing something you are comfortable doing with support generally is easy. When facing the fear and the uncomfortable feeling of the ropes course, the support and encouragement of the team was the backbone I needed to face my fear. I now can look back at that moment to help me challenge other fears I have.

This is from a recent morning devotional. It has extra meaning for the "Leapsters". I hope you enjoy it.

Held By His Hands
The God Who Won’t Let you Fall
Max Lucado: A Gentle Thunder : Hearing God Through the Storm.

I would like to confess a fall. I’ve kept it secret long enough. I can’t deny the stumble; nor can I dismiss the truth. I fell. There were witnesses to my slip. They can tell you. Graciously, they have told no one. Out of concern for my reputation, they kept the event a secret. But it has been a secret long enough. The time has come for my mistake to be shared.

Jerry Racke was a vice principal at my high school here in Kentucky. It was quite remarkable, the whole school was abuzz with excitement because Jerry MADE THE US OLYMPIC TEAM!!!

MELODY RICHARDS SOUNDS LIKE A FUN PERSON TO BE AROUND.
SHE LIKES TO BE OUTDOORS, ESPECIALLY IN THE MOUNTAINS AND IS MOST AT PEACE WHEN BY A POND, CREEK OR LAKE WITH FAMILY.

WE SEEM TO HAVE A LOT IN COMMON.
WE BOTH LIKE JEEPS AND THE OUTDOOR ATMOSPHERE.
WHEN NOT AT WORK WE LIKE TO SPEND TIME WITH OUR FAMILY, FRIENDS AND ENJOY LIFE.

IT'S NICE TO HAVE MELODY FOR A BUDDY.
HAPPY TRAILS.

Attached is the PPT that we will cover on tonight's Monday night webinar.
