Michigan Pastor Shreds the Slopes at a Brighton Ski Resort

This man of the cloth has mad skills on the slopes. USA Today shared the video of the snowboarding pastor who makes quick work of the mountain at Mt. Brighton, a popular ski resort in Brighton.

His name is Reverend Canon Jean-Baptiste Commins, and he's been serving as the Rector of St. Joseph Shrine and Parish in Detroit since last year.

There's a Reason This Pastor is Wearing a Cassock

In the video below, you'll see the 32-year-old French-born priest snowboarding in his Cassock. In 2017, Pr. Commins told Epic Pew that doing so is a form of evangelism.

“With the cassock, it has a real power, too. Because many people ask me where I am from. They ask if I am a real priest, he says. "It helps me be a real apostolate for the church. It shows that we can have a priest doing normal stuff like sports.”

Commins says participating in sports activities has allowed him to meet people, many of whom have later visited his church.
