May the Lord ski with you!
National Skiing Championships for Priests


That was the official motto at Italy's first ever "National Skiing Championships for Priests", where 40 clergymen, including a 73-year-old, competed on Friday.

The priests became downhill racers for the day in an event blending sporting prowess and spirituality, said organiser Renato Picciolo of the national Christian sports club that organised the championships.
