Topic: Pastoral Year '04 - '05
I have to give kudos to the Shiner High football team. Something that people don't see much anymore during funeral processions is people pulling over on the side of the road in reverence for the deceased and the family. The other day I helped father with a funeral for a parishioner whose family is from out of town. They promptly sent a thank you to the rectory which informed me of how the Shinerites have taken it a step further. The funeral procession from the church to the cemetery goes right by the football practice field, where upon seeing the procession, the football team stopped practice and took a knee until all cars passed by. This impressed me much, which is why I share it with you.
