St. Augustine Week kicks off

INTRAMURALS is the perfect time to establish camaraderie, sportsmanship and talents among seminarians, priests and lay formators.

The St. Monica Institute of Religious Studies and Tabor Hill College of the Order of Discalced Augustinians (OAD) launched the Sportsfest 2012 on Aug. 9 at the OAD Gym on Tabor Hill, barangay San Jose, Cebu City as one of the highlights of St. Augustine’s Week from Aug. 27 to Aug. 31 with this year’s theme, “If Augustine were still alive today…”

Physical fitness is not only conditioning one’s body but also conditioning one’s mind, said Rev. Fr. Roland Biong, OAD as he opened the week-long activities.

If Augustine were still alive today, he will play among seminarians, priests and lay formators. He will showcase his agility and alertness in the set of activities like tree planting, film viewing, lectures, educational tour, and oratorical contest.  /SEMINARIAN MARCELINO RAPAYLA JR., OAD
