I'm part of a team for a Two Year Academy for Spiritual Formation which has ecumenical participants. It is made up of 60% minister. I'm trying to get them to think about taking care of their physical body since it is the Sanctuary where to Holy Spirit lives. Do you have any statistics on health problems of ministers I could use to make them realize the health issues with sedentary lifestyle they have? Would you share those with me.
