371 | What's Brewing | Closing the Digital Divide

When the pandemic closed schools in March 2020, many students were left without reliable ways to connect with their teachers and classmates. As the Technology Department Coordinator at Murray City School District in Utah, Jason Eyre and his team worked to connect over 6000 kids to computers and a WiFi connection in a way that has brought about national attention. Their story was featured on the Today Show and news outlets all over the US. Jason sees this project as a way he lives out Community of Christ's Mission Prayer to be fully awake, ready to respond, and to become a blessing to his community. Host: Brittany MangelsonGuest: Jason EyreThanks for listening to Faith Unfiltered!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.
