Support Options
FREE SUPPORT
Monthly Group Meetings- Dr. Christine hosts monthly zoom meetings on the first Tuesday of the month at 6pm EST. She typically sends out the zoom link a little before the meeting on that day. We try to post the zoom link on Mighty Networks.
Online Support Groups- Currently we use Mighty Networks. This is a forum where you can share insights, gain encouragement, ask for prayers and to pray for others. You will receive an invitation to join the SACRED Standers group. If you don't receive that, click on this link to request access. Allow up to 48 hours for approval. If you do not receive this, please reach out to sacredstander@gmail.com to let us know.
Small Groups - Each new member is assigned to a small group within the first few days of being accepted into the group. There are mixed (male and female) groups as well as women only groups. Each mentor and co-mentor operate their small groups in various ways. Some new members have chosen not to participate in small groups. If this is the case and you change your mind, please send an email to sacredstander@gmail.com to let us know. Your mentor(s) will reach out within a week or two after you have been assigned to them. Please keep in mind, we are all volunteers and work to fit this into our daily lives (most have full time jobs and family obligations so your patience is appreciated).
Marco Polo app- We use this app to send video messages, similar to texting. If you choose to download the app, it allows another way for Christine or one of the mentors to communicate with you. This is a free app and one you can download from the app store. Note that instructions and info on this app can be here.
Prayer Partners- We encourage you to participate in Mighty Networks. Many of us have found one or two prayer partners just by commenting or reaching out via direct message on that app/platform. If you want to be assigned a prayer partner, please let your mentor know as we can reach out to more exprienced standers and see who may be able to participate in that way. If you want to be a prayer partner to another, we can add you to a list and when a new member requests a partner, we can recommend you.
PAID SUPPORT
One-on-One Coaching- Dr. Christine offers paid one-on-one coaching and counseling. As she has her PHD in Communication and is an expert on relationships, you can schedule support with her directly. You should have her personal information when she called you initially.
