New Soccer Field Blessed

Yesterday afternoon, just prior to the first home game, I had the pleasure of blessing the new soccer field of St. Anthony of Padua High School. The Effingham Daily News ran this story about the blessing.

Prior to the blessing, the high school band played several pieces, including the school fight song and "The Star Spangled Banner." They played well and I look forward to hearing them play again soon. Before long maybe they will even learn Howard Shore's "Hobbiton" for me...

Although our soccer team did not win the match yesterday, they played well. Keep it up guys!
