Projects & Programs

Numerous programs operate directly under the ISB:

The Religious Coalition for Cable Television (RCCTV) provides faith and values programming from both local and national sources 24 hours a day on cable channel 19 .
The annual Dorothy Booker Interfaith Musicale allows the community to experience choirs and music from many faith traditions.
The fall All Faith Community Dinner combines sharing a meal along with music, a review of events of the past year, and opportunities to serve in the year ahead to create an evening of fellowship, celebration, and challenge.
