Keeping Our Hearts "In Shape"
The month of August began with an exhilarating
experience for several of our monks. The annual
"Run Over Addiction", a 5K charity run, took place on
Saturday, August 2nd. Among the 160 participants
were our own Frs. Gregory-David Jones and John Martin
Shimkus, and our novice Br. Zachariah Ryan.
The run benefits Guesthouse, an addiction treatment center for clergy and religious which is internationally known and respected. Located in nearby Orion Township, Guesthouse is also an important ministry of our Br. Mark Orcutt. He provides much appreciated spiritual support to many of the male residents there on a weekly basis.
Our monastic runners, who have been "training" for several weeks, enjoyed a fun and successful run. All of them finished with respectable times, and places. Everyone, young and old, was enthusiastic in supporting this most worthy cause and sharing the fellowship and excitement of the event!
