Send us Fan MailWhat if the greatest measure of success in youth ministry isn't getting students to graduation......it's what happens after they leave?Every youth pastor has watched it happen. A student who was faithful all through high school slowly disappears during their first semester of college. Rarely is it one dramatic decision. More often it's loneliness, distraction, isolation, and never learning how to follow Jesus without someone planning their spiritual life.In this episode, Zac Workun sits down with Paul Worcester (North American Mission Board) to explore what college ministry leaders see every fall—and what youth pastors can do before graduation to help students develop a faith that actually lasts.Together they unpack why the first 90 days of college are one of the most important windows in a student's spiritual life, how discipleship must move beyond teaching into training, and why smaller discipleship groups may be one of the missing pieces in modern youth ministry.

"Accommodating these children is like giving them a lifeline, and these children are worthy of it." Christine Bauereis didn't find out she was autistic and ADHD until her 30s. The clarity came the way it does for so many parents, after her own kids were diagnosed. She looked at her son's reports, then at her own childhood, and the whole picture finally made sense. Christine is a mom of three in central Massachusetts, part of a blended family. Her 14-year-old, her 10-year-old son Archer, who has ADHD, and her youngest, River, who is six and autistic. River is level two, verbal with moderate support needs, and as she puts it, just wonderful. In this Seen and Heard episode, Christine gives Rob an honest look at what their days hold. The mornings that used to be a battle, before a new psychiatrist, an ADHD diagnosis, and medication that she calls life-changing turned school refusal into a kid who pops up asking if he has school today. The afternoons that get hard, because River masks all day and lets it all out when he's finally home and safe. And a win that will stay with you, a three-hour food drive she and River did together for families in Worcester, the first full day they ever got through without a single meltdown. But the heart of this one is Christine's voice as an advocate. When her district's entire SEPAC resigned because the district wouldn't collaborate, she didn't go quiet. She stood up at a town meeting and said the thing every parent in that room needed to hear. Special education isn't a choice. It is a right. What you'll hear: Finding out she's autistic and ADHD in her 30s, after her kids How ADHD medication turned school refusal into excitement Why masking all day leads to afternoon meltdowns at home The Worcester food drive that became their first meltdown-free day When the whole SEPAC resigned, and what she did next Why she begs parents to listen to autistic adults "No matter what level it is, it's still hard. Everyone's hard is hard." Christine Bauereis This episode is sponsored by Time To Evaluate.

1989 - Worcester, Massachusetts. June 5, 1989, was supposed to be a day of celebration for 17-year-old Nereida “Nettie” Melendez. The responsible and ambitious teenager was set to graduate from high school and begin the next chapter of her life. But when Nettie failed to appear at her graduation ceremony, her family immediately knew something was wrong. Their worst fears were realized the following day when Nettie's body was found during a family-led search. Decades later, the mystery surrounding her death remains unsolved. Nettie's brother, Peter Vasquez, and cousin, Doris, join us to talk about the young woman behind the headlines, the lingering questions that continue to haunt their family, and the determination that keeps them searching for justice. 17-year-old Nereida Melendez, who went by Nettie, had a big day ahead of her, and plans for her bright future. June 5th, 1989, was just the beginning: her high school graduation. But when her name was called onstage to get her diploma, Nettie was nowhere to be found. Her family started to panic. Nettie was responsible, and it was highly unlike her to miss such an important event. Their panic ended in tragedy when her body was recovered after a family search the next day. To this day, her case still remains unsolved. Nettie's brother, Peter Vasquez, and her cousin Doris, reflect on Nettie's life, their frustrations with the slow moving investigation, and what they would say if they were face to face with her killer. If you have any information on the murder of Nettie Melendez, I encourage you to call the Worcester Police Dept at 508-799-8466, text TIPWPD to CRIMES (274637), or submit an ⁠anonymous tip⁠.

While in the US, he became involved in helping the less fortunate. He often worked to help people find food and shelter, and Maereg's work led him to the west coast to California, and to the Seattle, Washington area.

Today on the Clint Peek Show we have Stephanie Lowe from Blessings Through Action and in the second half hour we have Kathleen Kelly Hernandez, Tom Worcester, and Jim Needles from the Oro Valley Citizens Patrol.

In this episode, All In podcast host Marc Goldberg interviews past ESOL student and current Quinsigamond Community College (QCC) employee Tea Demetrashvili, president of Quinsigamond Community College, Dr. Luis G Pedraja, Jeff Moineau, Process and Estimating Manager at WireFab Inc., an employer partner to the college, and Andre Green, the Executive Director at SkillWorks, a funder collaborative in Boston, Massachusetts that brings together philanthropy, government, community organizations and employers to to improve workforce development across the state.Tea describes how her experience taking ESOL classes in the Adult Community Learning Center at QCC helped her personally and professionally as a newcomer to the community. She elaborates on the care and support provided by faculty and staff and the services offered for students, which she is now able to reciprocate working in the ACLC department supporting other students. Dr. Pedraja and Jeff both reflect on Tea's interview and discuss the critical role that multilingual learners and workers play in the Worcester region to address workforce talent needs from different perspectives - as a college president and a business leader. Dr. Pedraja further discusses the college's development of a strategic action plan for multilingual learners and why it has been a priority. Jeff highlights the company's valuable partnership with QCC who provides workplace ESOL courses for WireFab multilingual workers. Andre offers insights at the state level describing how immigrants and refugees can broaden the talent pool of skilled workers but need additional English language coursework. He shares how a broad coalition of organizations across Massachusetts were effectively able to advocate for legislation to increase state funding for vocational ESOL courses as an innovative workforce strategy. 

In this Fully Human Father's Day message, His Grace Bishop John Abdalah of the Diocese of Worcester and New England, for the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America speaks about fatherhood from the unique vantage point of a father and grandfather, spiritual father and hierarch, and licensed counselor. This conversation offers much spiritual and practical edification to all parents, and those with disabilities, and offers perspectives on the following: What does it mean to be a father in the image of our heavenly father? To whom do our children belong? How can parents become the fathers and mothers they were created to be? How does the spousal relationship affect children? How might parents frame the challenges they encounter in child-rearing, especially challenges related to disabilities, in ways that align with the Way of Christ? How can spiritual fathers and church communities serve the needs of families with disabilities?

In this bonus episode, Katy Cowan and Rob Draper swap the big career questions for something a lot more daft – a quickfire ramble through nostalgia, confessions and very questionable claims to greatness. Rob shares his most controversial creative opinion (talking about it isn't doing it), the smallest thing that improves his work day, and the theme tune his creative style would have – an old radio dial flicking between fast and slow, classic and modern, all in the name of contrast. He reveals the skills he'd steal overnight, from projection mapping to portraiture, and the daily portrait challenge he's quietly set himself. Along the way, the pair tumble down a glorious rabbit hole of childhood memories: Number 73 and Saturday morning telly, the first wave of electro and hip-hop, breakdancing in Worcester, and an eleven-year-old Rob's all-consuming dream of working for Nike. Katy, meanwhile, makes the case for stolen marzipan, declares herself the world's greatest hip-hop dancer (white wine permitting), and tries – repeatedly, desperately – to find a single other human being who gets the "fuzzy nose" feeling. Warm, silly and gloriously off-piste, it's the perfect send-off for the season, and a reminder that the best creative conversations are the ones that refuse to stay serious.

Derrik and Hunter are back for MiLB Talk and start with Enddy Azocar top 100 hype. They discuss Greenville's lineup as a whole and the development of a few of the bats who have been picking up the slack lately. Salem needs some juice. Worcester could also use some juice. Franklin Arias and Johanfran Garcia have all the juice.

Lettering artist, designer and University of Worcester fellow Rob Draper joins Katy Cowan to close out the season with a warm, philosophical conversation about starting over and the art of creating something from nothing. Rob opens up about the redundancy that upended his life at 40, the period when he cleared out a warehouse waiting for work that never came, and the decision that changed everything: to try anything, turn down nothing, and trust that action creates action. From teaching art in a men's prison to drawing on Starbucks cups and learning sign writing from a canal-barge painter, he shares how saying yes to the unexpected slowly built a career – and how COVID later pushed him back towards being the artist he'd always wanted to be. Together they get honest about the "messy middle" of a creative life: redundancy, divorce, losing the house and starting again on a camp bed at his sister's, and what happens when the trappings of success you can no longer afford force you to rethink what success even means. Rob makes the case for baby steps over big leaps, for keeping a creative "toolbox" of skills you might not need yet, and for kicking enough balls at goal that, eventually, one goes in. With reflections on authenticity in the age of AI, why craft will always find an audience, and the quiet contentment of enjoying the path rather than chasing the destination, it's a generous, funny and reassuring listen for anyone facing uncertainty – and proof that going right back to square one might just be the best thing that ever happens to you.

Quotes from the episode: "Stop trying to HVAC your way out of bad buildings, and your results will market themselves." "The quality work and word of mouth are real when you're doing building science-backed work with quality staff." "Come with problems you're actively trying to work on and meet others who can help you work on them." In this episode of Building HVAC Science, Bill welcomes back Brent Davidson of the U.S. Heat Pump Summit for his third appearance. Brent shares what emerged from the first full-scale national Heat Pump Summit held in Massachusetts in November 2025, including the strong appetite among contractors for practical, business-focused heat pump education. The event is designed not as a policy forum or sales-heavy conference, but as a contractor-facing gathering where HVAC and plumbing professionals can learn how to build stronger, more profitable businesses around heat pumps, building science, and quality installation practices. Brent also discusses the launch of The Heat Pump Edge, a twice-weekly newsletter that extends the Summit's mission year-round by profiling successful contractors and sharing practical takeaways that others can apply in their own businesses. The conversation highlights contractors who are growing through training, word of mouth, building science, and better customer outcomes, not just bigger marketing budgets. Brent emphasizes that the best heat pump businesses are often led by people willing to share openly, train deeply, and professionalize the trades from the inside out. The episode closes with a look ahead to the next U.S. Heat Pump Summit, scheduled for September 15–16, 2026, in Worcester, Massachusetts. Brent describes the event as a place for motivated contractors to bring real business challenges, meet peers, learn from successful operators, and connect with exhibitors focused on the future of residential heat pumps. Bill sums it up with a very Pittsburgh-flavored thought: if your business needs help, look for the helpers at the Heat Pump Summit.

The Red Sox demoted Brayan Bello, a starting pitcher after a series of recent struggles, including the final straw Thursday when the pitcher gave up 6 runs in the first inning alone against the Orioles. Bello is being sent down to Worcester's Triple A. The pitcher has been defensive when asked about his struggles and told reporters that he is not interested in working through his struggles in Triple-A Worcester saying, "I’m thinking about making my adjustments in the big leagues…I have a big-league contract, that doesn’t mean the bosses will take a position or not, taking that into consideration, but I’m a big leaguer...and I’ll make my adjustments here.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 624: The Sox dropped another home series at AMB, and that seems to be the least of their concerns heading into a weekend series in the Bronx. Another disgusting Brayan Bello start has landed him in Worcester, after the demotion. Jared, Steve, Tyler, and Coley all react to Craig Breslow's stunning move. They discuss Chad Tracy's postgame presser, which was filled with the phrase “I don't know,” and ask whether this team is going to get better before it gets worse. IKF's perplexing quote adds to the growing drama in the clubhouse, and the guys try to decipher what on earth it could mean about the team's atmosphere. The lone bright spot from the series was the performance of left-handed pitcher Payton Tolle. A full Tolle tongue bath is in order after his six shutout innings against Baltimore, which helps lighten the mood. There's also an update on the Shower Poop situation, plus the usual Stop & Shop and Stevie P's Weather Lookahead as the Red Sox head to New York to face the Yankees. 00:00:00 - Tyler Catches an Early Suspension   00:01:40 - Whose Hero Team is The Best?
