After their son Christopher passed away in 1969 from Rhabdomyosarcoma, Charles and Erma Millard decided to start a Charity organization that would help Pediatric cancer patients and their families. This organization was named Four Diamonds and Suzanne Graney, who has been its Executive Director for the past 15 years, will talk about this amazing organization which pays all expenses for each child that is treated at Penn State Health's Golisano Children's Hospital that are not covered by insurance. Four Diamonds has been partnering with Penn State and their Dance Marathon known as Thon which is the largest Student Run Philanthropy in the World, with all proceeds going to Golisano Children's Hospital to fight Pediatric Cancer.  

The Government is being accused of an "abandonment by default" of low-lying parts of East Clare. Maghera Fianna Fáil Councillor Pat Hayes has tabled a motion at this week's meeting of Killaloe Municipal District proposing the establishment of a stakeholders' group with the aim of tackling ongoing flooding in the catchment area of the River Graney. In response, Clare County Council's environmental team has contacted the Local Authority Waters Programme which has said it "would not be supportive of drainage of the Graney catchment" as this would contravene key objectives of the EU Water Framework Directive. Councillor Hayes believes affected landowners should be compensated.

“We should not be discerning our vocations just by ourselves. We need the help of other people who love us and have the best in mind for us.” Fr. Paul Graney joins Fr. Craig Giera and Fr. Drew Mabee to share his journey to the priesthood. He describes the “light-switch moment” in his college dorm that sparked his discernment and reflects on the importance of mentors, community, and the desire to belong to something bigger than yourself. His story highlights how God uses every part of our lives—even hockey and pickup trucks—to draw us toward our vocation.(0:25) Fr. Craig and Fr. Drew open the episode, recorded on the feast of Sts. Simon and Jude, by welcoming their guest, Fr. Paul Graney. The trio catch up on recent events in their lives and joke about the fact that Fr. Paul and Fr. Craig are often mistaken for each other. The conversation turns to Fr. Paul's modified F-150 and love of playing hockey.(08:30) Fr. Paul recalls growing up in Oxford, playing backyard hockey on the rink his dad built, and the joy of his high school varsity team's first big win. He then shares how skiing trips with friends led him to a non-denominational youth ministry that he increasingly attended throughout high school. (18:11) Fr. Paul explains how his Protestant youth minister encouraged him to consider ministry, something he initially rejected due to a fear of public speaking. While attending Oakland University, he experiences a sudden interior prompting: “Do you want to be a pastor?” (27:40) Fr. Paul attends a small evangelical Bible program, learning Scripture, learning to preach, and serving in soup kitchens. He eventually moved to New York City and got a job at the Starbucks at Rockefeller Center, across the street from St. Patrick's Cathedral. This led to an impromptu meeting with the priest and a return to the Sacrament of Confession and the Catholic faith.(50:03) Fr. Paul attended a discernment weekend at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, where Fr. Tim Birney, the vocations director, encouraged him to live the Catholic faith for a few years while continuing to discern the priesthood. Once he finally entered the seminary, his biblical background helped him navigate the shift from a Protestant to Catholic understanding of Scripture.(56:03) Fr. Paul recounts how his godfather and parents responded to his return to the Church, and how his renewed faith eventually drew them back to regular Mass attendance. (58:24) Fr. Paul offers advice to men discerning the priesthood: stay close to the sacraments, listen, seek mentors, and immerse yourself in parish life. He concludes by reflecting on the gift of belonging to the “team” of Jesus Christ and the fraternity of the priesthood. He then closes the episode with a prayer for all discerning men and for the Church's priests.

The long awaited delivery of an EU funded project will aim to make an East Clare region a benchmark for Irish Water Quality. It comes as the Waters of Life Programme will be outlining its high level objectives to bring the quality of rivers and streams in the Graney-Sub Catchment area up to a premium standard. It's now been over two years since the waterbody was included in the €20m EU funded Waters of Life Programme, which aims to combat the decline of Ireland's high status rivers. The Graney sub-catchment area also includes the Drumindoora, Bleach, Corra Rivers, Lough Graney and Lough Attorick and the area includes roughly 1,350 people within the villages of Flagmount, Caher, Killanena and Dromindoora. A recent analysis by the Local Authority Water Programme determined the water quality in the Graney River was 'mixed' and cited a high level of forestry and man made barriers as the main problems. The Waters of Life will soon be conducting a risk assessment of the Graney sub-catchment area to identify pressure points where large amounts of sediment are being deposited into the water and how to combat them. The Programme's Agricultural Scientist John Kelly says tackling the problem will be crucial to the projects success. Under EU Law, the Government is legally required to introduce measures to ensure chemical and ecological water quality is good or better across the country's waterways. Although, the EPA assigned good ecological status to the Dromindoora, Corra and Bleach Rivers, the Water's of Life programme will aim to elevate this to high status. Next Wednesday at 7.30pm, a public meeting will be held at the Flagmount Community Centre to present an update on water quality and the project's approach to catchment management. Waters of Life Engagement Officer Ross O'Donoghue insists community consultation will be vital if they're to meet their goals.
