Cleveland priest arrested for growing marijuana

As if Bishop Pilla does not have enough problems, along comes this 'indiscretion' at Prince of Peace Catholic Church:
Police arrest priest in Norton drug raid
Pastor charged with cultivating marijuana at rectory. Second man accused of trafficking; 35 plants seized

And another story on this here.

I wonder if Fr. Arko will be able to make this 14th Annual Retreat in Faith and Light on May 2-4, 2003?

And then, there's the Yoga stuff...Someone found this gem at "Visions of the Nile". The "gardening" priest is praised near the bottom of the page. From the website:

Her major influences for teaching and practicing Yoga began with her first teacher certification with Jan Hauenstein, CYT with Try for Life Yoga School. Her steadfast and by far the most enriching and education teaching experience has been with Yoga Fr. Rick Arko from Sacred Ground Yoga. Susan has been with Fr. for six years and feels "there's no better feeling when you finally find your teacher/Guru." Through Fr. Rick's introduction, Susan was led to the teachings of Yoga Amrit Desai which she is currently studying and practicing Yogi Desai's teaching for future certifications in Yoga Teacher Training and Yoga Nidra program. "My intention for the future of Yoga is to bring these ancient and healing teaching to anyone who is interested in enjoying a healthier, happier life."

And who is this unemployed 24 year old who is living at the rectory who was also charged?
Pray, pray, and pray some more!
