My Story

My name is Lori Crock and I have been married to my husband Al for 38 years. We are blessed with two children, a son- and new daughter-in-in law and one grandson.

I converted to Catholicism more many years ago and thanks be to God for my husband Al's strong faith which continues to inspire me on my faith journey.

I enjoy being active at St. Brendan the Navigator Church in Hilliard, Ohio. I volunteer on the Columbus Catholic Women’s Conference leadership team and share my joy of prayer and exercise in Holy and Healthy minutes recorded for St. Gabriel Catholic Radio.

I have always loved to write, and formerly worked in marketing to serve many wonderful Catholic organizations in the Columbus area including  the Office of Vocations, seekholiness.com and St. Gabriel Catholic Radio. 

Through that experience, and in coordinating the Seminarian Bike Tour, I began to understand the critical role of discerning and being true to God's vocational call in our lives.

Currently, I write a monthly column, Holy and Healthy, for The Catholic Times and serve on the leadership team for the Columbus Catholic Women's Conference and I write for their blog. 

The Holy Spirit has has inspired me to speak about faith and fitness and I humbly  welcome these opportunities for sharing and connection to other faith-filled women.

I enjoy being a SoulCore Leader and I am very excited to share SoulCore Rosary prayer with strengthening, stretching and functional movement at parishes and locations in the Columbus Diocese and beyond.

SoulCore has enriched my prayer life and deepened my relationship with Jesus and his Blessed Mother. Praying the Rosary is truly life-changing!

I am also blessed to work as a Kettlebell Strength Coach helping all ages and fitness levels get stronger at a gym in Dublin, Ohio.

I view my journey with Jesus as a great adventure and I am overwhelmed with gratitude to share my passion for faith and fitness with you.
