SUMMARY:DMARC Emergency Food Pantries Sunday Special Collection
DESCRIPTION:Our DMIEC community works to address food insecurity issues in the Des Moines metro area via a special collection for the DMARC Emergency Food Pantries on the fourth Sunday of every month. \nThe need is real. The fiscal year just ended was the busiest in DMARC emergency food pantries’ nearly 50-year history  The 22\,000 people assisted in June 2023 was the second highest number on record. 1 in 6 City of Des Moines residents used a food pantry in 2022. \nAnd that need has not subsided. The combination of inflated food prices\, an end to COVID benefits\, and lingering pandemic hardships is driving more people to seek assistance at the pantry.  For recent info about local food needs and services\, please click here and here. \nFor more information\, please visit the DMARC Food Pantries website https://www.dmarcunited.org/food/\nRead DMARC’s most recent quarterly newsletter here. \nTwo ways to donate: \nVia special envelopes available at DMIEC on in-person fourth Sundays. Please write checks to “DMARC\,” include a note with/on your check indicating that you are part of the DMIEC community\, put the check in the envelope\, and put the envelope in the collection basket. \nSend donation checks directly to DMARC. Please write checks to “DMARC” and mail to DMARC at its *new address*\, 100 Army Post Road\, Des Moines\, IA 50315. Please include a note with your check indicating that you are part of the DMIEC community.

SUMMARY:Poetry as Prayer
DESCRIPTION:“There are as many ways to poetry as there are to God.” ~ Joy Harjo \nWhen you read a poem\, what is your experience?  Is there a poem\, poetry that you experience as\nprayer—a way to slowing down; a way that enlivens your heart and imagination; a way back to yourself\nand your place in the scheme of things; a way beyond yourself to the Divine\, to Holy Mystery\, to the\nOneness Known by Many Names?  Carmen Lampe Zeitler will open a conversation about the experience\nof poetry as prayer.  We’ll read poetry (please bring any you would like to share) and consider together\nhow poetry and prayer connect.

SUMMARY:Community Conversation re: Live Streaming
DESCRIPTION:At last Sunday’s October 15th conversation\, about adding live streaming of our prayer service to those who are unable to attend in-person\, it was mentioned that we would have an in-person conversation. That in-person conversation will be this coming Sunday\, October 22\, after our prayer service. Those who did not have a chance to comment at the Zoom conversation last Sunday will have a chance to comment. This will also give the Ad Hoc Tech committee a chance to show where the cameras and microphones will be placed and what part of the space will appear on camera. A survey will be sent out following this conversation as soon as that can be arranged\, to gather information on making the decision on going ahead with this plan. \nQuestions?  Please contact Mary Ann Koch at kochmaryann2014@gmail.com

SUMMARY:DMARC Emergency Food Pantries Sunday Special Collection
DESCRIPTION:Our DMIEC community works to address food insecurity issues in the Des Moines metro area via a special collection for the DMARC Emergency Food Pantries on the fourth Sunday of every month. \nThe need is real.

The combination of inflated food prices\, an end to COVID benefits\, and lingering pandemic hardships is driving more people to seek assistance at the pantry.  For recent info about local food needs and services\, please click here and here. \nFor more information\, please visit the DMARC Food Pantries website https://www.dmarcunited.org/food/\nRead DMARC’s most recent quarterly newsletter here. \nTwo ways to donate: \nVia special envelopes available at DMIEC on in-person fourth Sundays. Please write checks to “DMARC\,” include a note with/on your check indicating that you are part of the DMIEC community\, put the check in the envelope\, and put the envelope in the collection basket. \nSend donation checks directly to DMARC. Please write checks to “DMARC” and mail to DMARC at its *new address*\, 100 Army Post Road\, Des Moines\, IA 50315. Please include a note with your check indicating that you are part of the DMIEC community.
