Podcasts about great works

In this episode of The Nonprofit Exchange, I had the pleasure of speaking with Paddy Shannon, the founder of Great Works, Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to enhancing healthcare access in Jamaica and beyond. Paddy shared his inspiring journey, which began over 15 years ago when he accompanied his wife on a dental mission trip to Jamaica. What started as a reluctant trip turned into a passionate commitment to serve the underserved populations in the region. The episode's title, "Unlocking Healthcare Potential: Building a Collaborative Mobile Infrastructure for Nonprofits," reflects Paddy's vision of creating a robust infrastructure that allows medical and dental professionals to focus on their work without the burden of logistical challenges. He emphasized the importance of collaboration, explaining how his organization aims to provide the necessary equipment and support for various healthcare initiatives, allowing volunteers to concentrate on delivering care. Paddy discussed the significant need for healthcare services in Jamaica, where many people line up for hours to receive treatment. Despite the existence of nationalized healthcare, access remains limited, and Paddy's organization seeks to fill that gap by offering free services to patients. He highlighted the impact of their work, noting that the organization he has been involved with has treated over 350,000 patients in Jamaica alone. We also explored the collaborative aspect of Paddy's work, where he invites other nonprofits and medical professionals to utilize the infrastructure he is building. By providing the necessary equipment and support, Paddy hopes to empower more volunteers to engage in meaningful service without the logistical headaches that often accompany such missions. As we wrapped up the conversation, Paddy shared insights into the formation of Great Works, Inc., and his vision for expanding its reach to other Caribbean countries. His enthusiasm for creating a sustainable model for healthcare delivery is truly inspiring, and I encourage anyone interested in volunteering or supporting this important work to connect with Great Works, Inc. This episode is a testament to the power of collaboration and the impact that dedicated individuals can have on communities in need. Thank you for joining us, and I hope you find inspiration in Paddy's story and the work being done through Great Works, Inc. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Producer/Host: R.W. Estela Hi, I'm RW Estela: Since 1991, I've been presenting A Word in Edgewise, WERU's longest-running short feature, a veritable almanac of worldly and heavenly happenings, a confluence of 21st-century life in its myriad manifestations, international and domestic, cosmopolitan and rural, often revealing, as the French say, the more things change, the more they stay the same — though not always! Sometimes in addressing issues affecting our day-to-day lives, in this age of vagary and ambiguity, when chronological time is punctuated elliptically, things can quickly turn edgy and controversial, as we search for understanding amid our dialectic. Tune in Monday mornings at 7:30 a.m. for an exciting journey through space and time with a few notable birthdays thrown in for good measure during A Word in Edgewise . . . About the host: RW Estela was raised as a first-generation American in Colorado by a German mother and a Corsican-Basque father who would become a three-war veteran for the US Army, so RW was naturally a military brat and later engaged in various Vietnam-era civil-service adventures before paying his way through college by skiing for the University of Colorado, playing Boulder coffeehouses, and teaching. He has climbed all of Colorado's Fourteeners; found work as an FAA-certificated commercial pilot, a California-licensed building contractor, a publishing editor, a practitioner of Aikido, and a college professor of English; among his many interdisciplinary pursuits are the design and building of Terrell Residence Library (recently renamed the Terrell House Permaculture Living & Learning Center at the University of Maine), writing Building It In Two Languages (a bilingual dictionary of construction terminology), aerial photo documentation of two dam removals (Great Works and Veazie) on the Penobscot River, and once a week since 1991 drafting an installment of A Word In Edgewise, his essay series addressing issues affecting our day-to-day lives — and WERU's oldest continuous short feature. When pandemics do not interfere, he does the Triple Crown of Maine open-water ocean swims (Peaks to Portland, Islesboro Crossing, and Nubble Light Challenge) and the Whitewater Downriver Point Series of the Maine Canoe and Kayak Racing Organization. RW is the father of two and the grandfather of three and lives with his partner Kathleen of 37 years and their two Maine Coons in Orono.

About the host: RW Estela was raised as a first-generation American in Colorado by a German mother and a Corsican-Basque father who would become a three-war veteran for the US Army, so RW was naturally a military brat and later engaged in various Vietnam-era civil-service adventures before paying his way through college by skiing for the University of Colorado, playing Boulder coffeehouses, and teaching. He has climbed all of Colorado's Fourteeners; found work as an FAA-certificated commercial pilot, a California-licensed building contractor, a publishing editor, a practitioner of Aikido, and a college professor of English; among his many interdisciplinary pursuits are the design and building of Terrell Residence Library (recently renamed the Terrell House Permaculture Living & Learning Center at the University of Maine), writing Building It In Two Languages (a bilingual dictionary of construction terminology), aerial photo documentation of two dam removals (Great Works and Veazie) on the Penobscot River, and once a week since 1991 drafting an installment of A Word In Edgewise, his essay series addressing issues affecting our day-to-day lives — and WERU's oldest continuous short feature. When pandemics do not interfere, he does the Triple Crown of Maine open-water ocean swims (Peaks to Portland, Islesboro Crossing, and Nubble Light Challenge) and the Whitewater Downriver Point Series of the Maine Canoe and Kayak Racing Organization. RW is the father of two and the grandfather of three and lives with his partner Kathleen of 37 years and their two Maine Coons in Orono.

The post A Word in Edgewise 2/17/25: From Langston Hughes to Red Barber . . . first appeared on WERU 89.9 FM Blue Hill, Maine Local News and Public Affairs Archives.

Welcome to episode 189 of Grasp the Bible.  In this episode, we walk through Psalm 92.  Today, we will explore some reasons to praise God: A Resolution to Praise the Lord (vv. 1-4) The Lord's Great Works and Judgment on His Enemies (vv. 5-9) God's Provision for the Psalmist (vv. 10-11) The Fruitfulness of the Righteous (vv. 12-15)  Key takeaways: Psalm 92 contrasts the Lord's punishment of the wicked with His blessing on the righteous. The psalmist made God his refuge and the experience was so great he could not keep from singing, nor from praising the Lord. The God of the psalmist is an active God who intervenes on behalf of His worshipers. Foolish people are blind because they choose not to see. The reason they do not know and will not praise God is that they do not want to know or praise Him. They actually hate Him because He is God, and they are not.  In the midst of wickedness, God comes as judge of the wicked and savior of the righteous.  There is no “injustice” in God. Surely, such a God is worthy of our praise.  Quotable: God will have the last word, and justice will be done.  Application: Our enjoyment of God is expressed in our praise of God, and when we praise God, we do indeed enjoy Him. Belief in divine judgment and in the righteous imperative is an acknowledgment that divinely established boundaries of human conduct do exist. Do we recognize God as the giver of the temporal benefits we enjoy? Or do we just take them for granted? Worse yet, do we boast of our accomplishments, our hard work, our victories (while blaming others, maybe God Himself, for our failures and defeats)? The righteous have a fruitful future to anticipate and enjoy because, even in old age, they will continue to flourish. They do not just retire, but they continue to be productive in life. In fact, for the righteous person, old age can be the time when the long-term returns on the investment of a godly life are enjoyed.   Connect with us: Web site:  https://springbaptist.org Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/SBCKleinCampus (Klein Campus) https://www.facebook.com/SpringBaptist (Spring Campus) Need us to pray for you?  Submit your prayer request to https://springbaptist.org/prayer/  If you haven't already done so, please leave us a rating and review in your podcast provider.
