Charlotte-The Daily Flow

Go Saints-Go Voice!

Ahh...the Saints! I, for one, lost my voice screaming yesterday. Glad to do it for a good cause.

The spirit of hope prevailed in the Big Easy with the Big Win.

Now, how fun do you think a city is, when The LA Archbishop, blesses off on no evening masses, so the truly faithful can cheer their team on, and now, The Governor has come back and made this week officially "Saints Week".

Now, that, is the way to handle a big win!

Really-from the Times Picayune (New Orleans main paper):

The Archdiocese of New Orleans said many, but not all, Catholic parishes are scrubbing or rescheduling their Sunday evening Masses with the blessing of Archbishop Gregory Aymond. He gets to be in Miami to watch the game with Saints owner Tom Benson.

Rumor has it, that more people were praying during the game, then they would've been had they been in church.

That game seemed to lift more than just the spirits of those that love the city of New Orleans ( I am in that group), but those that love the story of the underdog that wins. It was a great game-great day!
