Per their site, “show your item to the global assembly of community repairers and get suggestions for things to try; then we move items/participants and repairers to Zoom breakout rooms to implement the suggestions and, hopefully, fix the items”.

A note from Rev. Diana
Members and Friends:
Wanna Reach out to friends in your church family?
Susan Owens is has taken on the task of starting a church directory through an online app called InstaChurch, and a few of you have replied to her already about your preferences.
All members are automatically in the directory, but only with the information that you provided when you joined the church.
A reminder that the Directory is Completely Private- passcode protected, will only be able to be seen and accessed by people who are in the directory- ISD Members and friends.
Please email Susan Owens if you would like to be included in the directory, but haven’t formally signed up to be a member yet;
or if you do NOT want to be in the church directory.
You will very soon have the opportunity to see the directory and check your listing, and send any corrections to Susan at drsowens@yahoo.com.

Just a reminder that we are continuing our Prayer Warriors group, every day at 5pm we pause to pray and send our healing energies where they are most needed right now
Each day at 5 PM EST, we will pause for about 10 minutes and meditate and pray with the intention of sending healing energy to all.
You do not have to be present each day. Requests for healing or suggestions should be submitted to our Healing Program director, Jo Ann Wormuth at the below ISD website link:
