I want to encourage all of you to work on your advancement level in FCF. So
many good things are done along the way and today is a great day to start on
those many steps. Just put your mind and heart into it and with God's Help
you will finish the race!
Our Chapter President Frank Reed called "Reed" presided over the event and
did such a excellent job he was reelected for another 3 years. Thanks to
all who have served so many years to make our Chapter the very best in the
nation! During Saturday mornings meeting we raised for Missions Pledges and
Offering $1730.00.
After the Buckskin ceremony and the event prizes given out to the young
bucks and special recognition's some stayed through to Sunday others packed
up and headed out arriving back to church at 9 p.m..
Drying out gear and posting funds and reports and pictures and thanking
Jesus that I am called to a program that builds character in young men and
the whole while pointing folk to Jesus Christ and His Church.
To Give and to Serve will often have us having real FAITH and standing for
things that are tough but worth it. I know my Savior Jesus Christ my King
is pleased with FCF and Royal Ranger Ministry.
