Regular Meeting Times
*** DECEMBER 11 - (Via Zoom) Lee Papa ***
Lee Papa was living a life filled with drama, conflict, and illness when, in 2008, she took an antibiotic for an upper respiratory infection, whereupon her condition rapidly deteriorated. Lying down, she felt her spirit leave her body and found herself surrounded by light. There was neither death, nor attachment, nor judgement in this place – only love – and she wanted to stay. But when she experienced the pain her young son would feel if she didn’t come back, she choose to return. Raised Catholic, Lee is a lifelong spiritual seeker, and now regards her near-death experience (NDE) as “the truest thing that has ever happened to me.” On Wednesday, December 11, at 7:00 pm Central Time, Lee will join us via Zoom from her home in Las Vegas to share her extraordinary experience and its gifts.
Please join us.

*** JANUARY 8 - (In Person) Dr. Snigdha Kola ***
Upon learning of the death of her brother-in-law, Dr. Snigdha Kola travelled to Chicago to help with funeral arrangements. That night, while going to sleep in the hotel, she felt herself lifting into the air and visualizing his spirit every time she closed her eyes. This, which she later came to recognize as a shared-death experience (SDE), was followed by other spiritually transformative dreams, synchronicities, and visions, including one that involved merging with Source. Now, more than five years later, she believes that the Divine has guided her into geriatric medicine to help people live meaningful lives, to de-prescribe medications wherever possible, to de-stigmatize death, and to help people transition over when they are ready. Her quest is to integrate consciousness-based medicine into mainstream healthcare. On Wednesday, January 8, at 7:00 pm Central Time, Dr. Kola will join us in person at the Flower Mound Community Activity Center to share her story.
We ask you to consider making a "Love Offering" (no more than $10) - requested but not expected; please, only what you can afford - to cover the cost of renting the room.
We look forward to seeing you!

Other Information
The DFW Friends of IANDS exists for people who’ve had near-death and/or related experiences or who have personal or professional interest in such experiences. The purpose of the group is to provide these people with a forum in which to discuss such experiences and their meaning and integration into subsequent life. Discussion takes place in an atmosphere of openness and interest/support without judgment, proselytizing, or advice-giving.
Our meeting content varies from month to month. Sometimes we have a structured program, such as a speaker or watching a relevant video followed by discussion. Other times, we “circle up” and discuss our own NDEs and related experiences and their ongoing meaning in our lives.
