Chaplain Appreciation: Meet Chaplain Ben Pflederer – Part 1

October is Pastoral Appreciation Month and that means it is Chaplain Appreciation Month, too. It’s a time to acknowledge the work, the love, and the care provided by the best asset of Soccer Chaplains United, our people! Today, on the podcast, I interview Chaplain Ben Pflederer. Ben serves as the volunteer chaplain to the Colorado Rapids Development Academy. He began serving earlier this year (2024) and he shares more of his life and story in this week’s (and next week’s) podcast. We talk soccer, Ben’s background, and more. Give a listen and meet Ben Pflederer! 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.
