Join us on Zoom at any of the below times. During the session we will go over some basics of how this project works, introduce members of the team who are here to support you, and talk about expectations of DRSP writers. We typically have a fairly small group and ask all attendees to introduce themselves briefly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, for those already writing to pen pals on death row through the DRSP, the DRSP team is holding open office hours on a monthly basis. All current writers are welcome to drop in virtually during office hours to ask questions or share reflections on their pen pal friendship. Office hours are held on the first Monday of each month, from 7-8 p.m. (Eastern time) at this Zoom link: <a href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/87986712241\">https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/87986712241<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Online informational sessions<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"197\" height=\"197\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brethren.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/drsp-logo.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15151\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brethren.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/drsp-logo.png 197w, https:\/\/www.brethren.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/drsp-logo-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 197px) 100vw, 197px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday, Jan. 13, 7-8 p.m. (Eastern time)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/81533695700\">https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/81533695700<\/a><br>Meeting ID: 815 3369 5700<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saturday, Jan. 18, 2-3 p.m. (Eastern time)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/87650853133\">https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/87650853133<\/a><br>Meeting ID: 876 5085 3133<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wednesday, Feb. 5, 7-8 p.m. (Eastern time)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/89310492264\">https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/89310492264<\/a><br>Meeting ID: 893 1049 2264<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saturday, Feb. 8, 2-3 p.m. (Eastern time)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/89049921360\">https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/89049921360<\/a><br>Meeting ID: 890 4992 1360<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday, March 3, 8-9 p.m. (Eastern time)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/86784872372\">https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/86784872372<\/a><br>Meeting ID: 867 8487 2372<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday, April 7, 6-7 p.m. (Eastern time)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/81420666438\">https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/j\/81420666438<\/a><br>Meeting ID: 814 2066 6438<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out more about the DRSP at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brethren.org\/drsp\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"www.brethren.org\/drsp\">www.brethren.org\/drsp<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find more Church of the Brethren news:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list wp-block-latest-posts is-layout-flow wp-block-latest-posts-is-layout-flow\"><li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brethren.org\/news\/2026\/steele-to-conclude-service-aug-2028\/\">David Steele to conclude service as Church of the Brethren General Secretary in August 2028<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brethren.org\/news\/2026\/steele-concluira-su-servicio-agosto-2028\/\">David Steele concluir\u00e1 su servicio como Secretario General de la Iglesia de los Hermanos en agosto de 2028<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brethren.org\/news\/2026\/steele-pral-fini-sevis-li-out-2028\/\">David Steele pral fini s\u00e8vis li k\u00f2m Sekret\u00e8 Jeneral Legliz Fr\u00e8 yo nan mwa Out 2028<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brethren.org\/news\/2026\/brethren-volunteer-service-unit-340\/\">Brethren Volunteer Service Unit 340 completes orientation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brethren.org\/news\/2026\/la-unidad-340-del-bvs\/\">La Unidad 340 del Servicio Voluntario de los Hermanos completa la orientaci\u00f3n.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Death Row Support Project (DRSP) will be holding informational sessions for people interested in learning more about writing to those on death row.
