Jesuits ran in four relay teams in the Munich Marathon for mercy-in-motion. They delivered a great effort that ended in a big success and hopefully a lot of fun.

Eleven Jesuits took part in this year’s Munich Marathon, and team one reached the finish line in 47th place among more than 700 relay teams in the event. Supported by five friends and co-workers, the runners from five provinces were unique in being the only officially registered religious group. Perhaps Saint Ignatius was watching over them and maybe even cheering for them as they turned in an excellent performance for the benefit of better education in refugee camps where Jesuits are working. By the sweat of their brow they supported the project Mercy-in-Motion of the Jesuit Refugee Service. Along the route they were cheered on by spectators, and their athletic efforts prompted several people to make a donation. Now they are already talking about participation in next year’s competition. Who will join them?
