Meet the LA priests ministering to NFL teams
With football season here, meet the LA priests ministering to NFL teams
Father Richard Sunwoo was never a big sports fan. But when a student from Loyola High School came to him asking for help converting to Catholicism, he decided to meet with him every Sunday.
When they would meet, Sunwoo thought it was odd that the student was always sweaty.
After his baptism on Easter Sunday, Sunwoo asked the student about his college plans.
“He said, ‘I’m going to Stanford. I got an offer to play football,’ ” Sunwoo said. “I said, ‘I didn’t know you played football.’ Because it just never came up.
