Thursday, (3/31) at 7 PM CST is when the "Make Thursdays Great Again" virtual Samson Society meeting takes place. The meeting facilitator, Mr. Justin Schwind, is located in Arizona, and he is a phenomenal virtual meeting facilitator. Justin's persona is ideal for Zoom. He's energetic, outspoken, and consistently engaging as the host.
I initially met Justin at a Samson Society National Retreat years ago, and was immediately taken aback by his love for this community of men. As such, had I not met him there, it's unlikely I would have transitioned from the Jackson, Mississippi Samson Society groups to virtual. For Justin gave me hope that I could find just as relevant a community therein as I had here locally (ever since 2014).
And I have, thanks to my commitment to the "Make Thursdays Great Again" group for the past +/-4 months.
What's fun about all of this virtual Samson Societying is how it allows God to use one's story outside the confines of the Magnolia State.
I am a bit nervous about facilitating on Thursday, (3/31), but overall, I know Mr. Justin Schwind's shoes are, no doubt, certainly not too big for Rob to fill.
I covet your prayers regarding this endeavor, and thanks so much for reading.
