Summary

SummaryI’m Adam Butkiewicz, born and raised in Fairfield, Sydney, into a devout Polish Catholic home. 🏠 As a teenager I chased thrills—drugs, alcohol, even credit-card fraud—until I landed in Silverwater and Long Bay prisons at 18. 🚔 Inside, surrounded by hardened criminals, I turned to daily workouts and prayer. 🙏 Facing a bail hearing, I begged God for a second chance—and He answered. Released with strict conditions, I still felt empty until one missed turn led me to a church in Liverpool. There, a pastor spoke truth I hadn’t heard: Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist. ✝️ That conviction drove me back to the Catholic sacraments—confession, Adoration in Kogarah—and ignited a faith that reshaped my mind, body, and soul. Today I’m a business owner and personal trainer, living proof that God redeems even the darkest prisons. 🕊️

Adam Butkiewicz’s inspiring story resembles the prodigal son. He grew up in a faithful Polish Catholic home and drifted from the faith during his teenage years. His partying lifestyle and toxic friendships got him in trouble and incarcerated. In prison, Adam started to encounter God, and looking back, he sees this as the time used by God to make him into a better man. Through his faithful journey, Adam realized how the sacraments help him heal and nourish his mind, body, and soul.
