Good Shepherd beneficiary of doctor’s tri-province Atlantic swim

Dr. Marilyn Korzekwa will swim from Nova Scotia to P.E.I. and back to New Brunswick to raise funds for Hamilton’s Good Shepherd Centres.

Swimming is fun. So why not do it 22 to 26 hours in 16-to-20-degree water with jellyfish, possible high winds and ocean tides pulling you in various directions? Not every 58-year-old psychiatrist is crazy enough to try it.

Perfect hands of the Good Shepherd

Jesus would gather the flock, protecting it from all danger and allowing it to flourish.

16th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year B) July 19 (Jeremiah 23:1-6; Psalm 23; Ephesians 2:13-18; Mark 6:30-34)

Shepherds do not fare well in the Old Testament. Although the shepherd was supposed to be the one who protected and cared for the flock, it seldom worked out that way.
