Listen "Chaplain Appreciation with Mike Richards"
Episode Synopsis
October is pastoral and chaplain appreciation month and for the remainder of the month, I’d like to interview several of Soccer Chaplains United’s very own chaplains. In the course of the next few weeks we can listen to and hear the work that they are doing with their teams and some of their origin story of how they came to be part of Soccer Chaplains United.
Today on the From the Touchline podcast, I am joined by Mike Richards. Mike is the volunteer chaplain for El Paso Locomotive FC, a team that plays in the United Soccer League Championship. Mike talks about his background of his grandparents as missionaries to Mexico, his work with El Paso Locomotive FC and the Jamaican National Team, as well as his church, Vino Nuevo. We wrap up the podcast with a fun game of Crosses with Rev and Mike unseats Ben Dudley from the Crosses with Rev leaderboard throne!
From the Touchline is a short-feature (10-15 min) podcast with Rev Brad Kenney, Founder and Executive Director of Soccer Chaplains United and Volunteer Chaplain to the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer. Rev Brad and occasional guests touch on various issues around the topics of faith, family, and football (soccer).
Also, don’t forget that you can listen in our app, SoccrChapUtd, in the Apple and Google store.
