Hibernian Radio Hour Jan. 18, 2025
Flood Bros. Disposal, Fox’s Pizza, Madden Funds, and Local 150 Operating Engineers present this week’s edition of Hibernian Radio with special guest this week, Father Ryan Brady, pastor of St. Christina parish in Mt. Greenwood and now also Chaplain to the Chicago Fire Dept. Paddy Houlihan once again is in the host chair and Father Brady brings it big time as he tells us his story, grew up in St. Christina himself where his grandparents would take him to mass and instilled in him a spirit on fire. Father Brady is inspirational telling Paddy of his journey to his vocation as a priest, and recounts how he left the seminary after two years and then returned a few years later to “take the leap of faith” to finish school and ordination. He sez, “When you do what God asks of you, things just fall into place!” Father Brady’s brother is a Local 130 Union Plumber and tells us the motto of Local !30, “the plumber protects the health of the nation”, and then sez “How is that not God’s work?” Plenty of gems from Father Brady on this show as he and Paddy discuss their mutual hero, Solanus Casey, and Fr. Brady tells us how Cardinal George influenced him along his path to the priesthood and how his girlfriend knew he had a vocation even before he did! Great stuff here folks, big thanks to Father Ryan Brady for his candor and honesty telling us of his journey of faith and we hope he returns with more philosophy and grace in the future. Great show, don’t miss this one!
