There's been significant debate in recent days over the promotional poster for this year's St. Patrick's Day parade in Shannon. The design, which promotes the theme “Celebrate the Cultures of Shannon,” has sparked strong reactions online, with some praising the focus on inclusivity and others questioning whether it shifts the emphasis away from Ireland's national day and its traditions. The parade is organised by Shannon Community Partnership in conjunction with Clare County Council, and organisers say the aim is to celebrate the diversity and community spirit of the town. To discuss the reaction and the plans for this year's parade, Alan Morrissey was joined by the Vice Chair of Shannon Community Partnership, Don O'Sullivan. Photo (c) Shannon Community Partnership

In this episode of the Care Ministry Podcast, host Laura Howe sits down with Dave Eckert and Mark to explore how churches and communities can work better together to care for people on the margins. Drawing from decades of experience in mental health, social services, and church leadership, Dave and Mark share why community itself is often the missing piece in care and how churches can move beyond good intentions toward meaningful, collaborative impact. The conversation unpacks the difference between services and help, the power of belonging, and why churches are uniquely positioned to fill gaps rather than duplicate efforts already happening in their neighborhoods. This episode is both deeply practical and deeply human, offering a hopeful vision for churches seeking to love their communities well. Quotes “The only disability is loneliness.” –Mark “There's a big difference between a service and help. They're not always the same thing.” –Mark “Sometimes churches start with what's exciting for them to do instead of asking what the community actually needs.” –Dave Eckert “What people need most is not professionalism—it's relationship.” –Mark “When churches fill gaps instead of overlapping, they develop a reputation as a necessary partner in the community.” –Dave Eckert Resources Intersect Webpage Intersect Trainings Intersect Newsletter Access Services Strengthening Communities Podcast Access Services Facebook Page Connect with Hope Made Strong Website: HopeMadeStrong.orgSocials: Facebook – Instagram – Twitter – YouTube HMS Amazong store

As part of our series on appetites, food and politics, and the need to snack during difficult times, host Ali Muldrow is in conversation with Jen Rubin and Jenny Pressman who spent the last two years on the hunt for the perfect bagel. They talk about their favorite cultural comfort food and their quest to find not just any bagel, but the Great Midwest Bagel, one that has been properly kneaded, fermented, boiled, and baked. Rubin began this quest as a grief project after the loss of her mother, the cultural bearer in her family. The bagel holds a central place in New York Jewish communities, says Rubin, who grew up eating bagels while chatting, or kibitzing, with family and friends. Pressman joined Rubin in the search for bagels that were made like the ones they used to love back in New York City.  Part food-travel, part archival research, and part personal family story, the Great Midwest Bagel Quest is a road trip story without the tragedy of Bonnie and Clyde or Thelma and Louise, just carbo-loading. Food is a manifestation of culture, and Rubin says the Quest has been a way to connect with her Jewish culture but untethered from Israel. Pressman says that their road trips around the Midwest were some of the funniest and seediest experiences she's ever had.  They also debate the role of capers in a bagel spread, how blueberry bagels don't count as traditional bagels, the rise of chain bagel stores and “millenial-pandemic-bagel-bakers,” how people regularly injure themselves when cutting bagels, and the desire for a “cripsy exterior.” Note: This pledge drive interview was edited to remove parts of the show dedicated to station fundraising. We thank our listeners for their generous support. Jenny Pressman is a passionate community activist, fundraiser, and connector. Previously a lawyer and director of a charitable foundation, Jenny is now in her dream role as the Director of Development and Community Partnerships for the UW Odyssey Project, a jumpstart program in the humanities addressing multigenerational poverty through access to education. Jenny is a proud Jewish lesbian mother and the daughter of Holocaust survivors.

Listeners learn how incarcerated participants complete the same rigorous coursework and volunteer requirements as any Master Gardener, while gaining valuable job skills, purpose, and confidence. The conversation highlights the program's far-reaching benefits, including the production of tens of thousands of pounds of fresh fruits and vegetables each year that are donated to River Cities Harvest and distributed to food-insecure families across Kentucky, Ohio, and West Virginia.

EP 134 Title:  Honoring the Gift of Life: Erica Randall's Journey with Network for Hope and Organ Donation   Episode Summary In this heartfelt episode, Erica Randall, Community Partnership and Events Manager at Network for Hope, shares her inspiring journey in building stronger communities and advocating for organ donation. Erica opens up about her role within the organization, highlighting the rewarding experience of organizing the annual Network for Hope Community Breakfast. But the conversation takes a deeply personal turn as Erica reflects on her family's connection to organ donation, including the passing of her cousin Jason, who became an organ donor after a tragic car accident, and her mother-in-law Gail, who gave the gift of sight through cornea donation. Erica also discusses the creation of the SODA (Student Organ Donation Advocates) chapter in Cincinnati, which has now grown to 7-8 thriving chapters, and her deep passion for honoring both donors and recipients. Tune in to hear about Erica's mission to spread awareness, inspire others, and make a lasting impact on the lives of those touched by organ donation.  Episode Highlights Erica Randall discusses her role at Network for Hope as the Community Partnerships and Events Manager, where she builds bridges between communities and the life-saving mission of donation. They recently held their annual breakfast event, themed “Voices of Hope,” where speakers reflected on the joy, resilience, and positivity of children and young adults impacted by donation. The event was visually brought to life through participants' paintings surrounding the word hope, creating a powerful representation of lived experiences. Andi and Erica highlight Keegan, a young boy waiting for a lung transplant whose optimism and enthusiasm inspired everyone in the room. Erica shared the story of Jaylynn, a cornea recipient who is now thriving as a high-school senior, illustrating how donation restores independence and possibility. Erica has spent nine years in the OPO field and is deeply committed to educating communities about how the donation process truly works. Erica shares how the loss of her cousin Jason, who became an organ donor after a fatal car accident at 23, introduced her to the world of donation. She reflects on more than a decade of donation support services, building meaningful relationships with donor families during their most vulnerable moments. Erica explains why specific medical questions are asked during tissue donation, emphasizing safety, ethics, and protection for recipients. Erica's mother-in-law Gail was diagnosed with liver cancer yet still became a cornea donor at age 66, restoring sight to two people in Saudi Arabia. Gail's story highlights the importance of educating the public that certain donations are still possible—even with active cancer diagnoses. Erica shares her work with the Student Organ Donation Advocates (SODA) chapter in Ohio, where over 550 students registered as donors. She emphasizes how today's teenagers are setting a powerful standard for social impact and advocacy. Andi thanks Erica for her transparency, leadership, and dedication to sharing knowledge that empowers informed decisions about donation. Key Takeaways Education dispels fear. Accurate, compassionate education helps families and communities understand donation and make informed decisions rooted in truth—not misinformation. Hope has many voices. From children waiting for transplants to recipients thriving years later, each story demonstrates the ripple effect of donation. Legacy lives on through giving. Personal loss, like Erica's experience with her cousin Jason, can transform grief into purpose and lifelong advocacy. Tweetable Quotes “​​So our theme is voices of hope. And we did feature children and young adults. And I liked that idea because I wanted to show people it's not just adults who go through this. It does impact, you know, children at birth, or it does impact children very young age.” - Erica Randall   “So Jalen scratched her cornea when she was two years old and had to receive a cornea transplant. She is now a senior in high school in cosmetology. I'm so proud of her, and she is a signed professional Fisher woman. Oh, my God, and to see her just thrive all because of a cornea transplant, and how her life, I mean, she could be 17 years old with no eye, or she could have no vision.” - Erical Randall   “At 23 years old, he (Jason, Erica's cousin)  became a superhero, and he was able to donate his heart, his liver, his kidneys, and he was a tissue donor. So that completely flipped our lives upside down, but introduced me to a world of donation I had no clue even existed.” - Erica Randall   “I think it's an honor to give them the chance to have that light that somebody gave me when Jason became a donor. It gave us some positivity to his death. It gave us some glimpse of hope, some light in our lives, and to give that, to pass that on to somebody else, to have that chance was a great privilege.” - Erica Randall   “She (Gail, Erica's Mother-in-Law) became a cornea donor at the age of 66 in her corneas, or in Saudi Arabia. So two people in Saudi Arabia have the gift of sight because of her. So, again, great moment here to educate people that can be cornea donors and have active cancer.” - Erica Randall   Resources: Donatelifeky.org https://getoffthelist.org/ https://www.networkforhope.org/ https://www.networkforhope.org/about-us/ https://www.networkforhope.org/stories-of-hope/ https://www.facebook.com/NetworkForHopeOPO https://www.youtube.com/@NetworkforHope. https://aopo.org/ RegisterMe.org/NetworkforHope

“You're not going to ask a bunch of choir directors to donate to your organization — you're going to have to go find other people who probably don't have the type of experience with choir that choral leaders do. It's about trying to translate not just your own personal love of choir but the reason that your choir exists, what it does for its community and its participants, the impact that your choir has on various spheres of influences. How do you translate your value to intersect with what they value so that they can look at you and say ‘you're a cause that I want to support'?”Alex Gartner is an educator, conductor, and composer based in Pensacola, Florida. He serves as the Artistic & Executive Director of the Pensacola Children's Chorus, where he oversees 9 resident choirs and 5 regional choirs comprised of nearly 300 singers. Combined, these programs reach an audience of 25,000 individuals, including 5,000 youth, throughout Northwest Florida.Gartner is an active clinician, workshop presenter, and guest conductor. He has served in leadership positions with the American Choral Directors Association and Americans for the Arts, and his choirs are active throughout Northwest Florida, the United States, and the world.
