Browser problems

I have noticed that when I try to access and use the blog using Internet Explorer I have some problems. It often will not let you click on links and sometimes freezes. Also one parent has been getting error messages when trying to use some of the links. This may be part of the same problem. If you use Internet Explorer and are having some trouble with this blog, I recommend trying a different browser. I have the links you need to download them below. I am a Firefox fan actually, but I prefer both of the browsers below to Explorer anyway.


Mozilla Firefox


Google Chrome

Update on the Soccer Priest



Earlier in the semester I made a post about Chase Hilgenbrinck, a professional soccer player who had retired at 26 to enter the seminary. More recently a friend showed me an article about this from ESPN that is very good and very in depth about his life. There is also a very good video.

Here is the article and video.
