State Chaplain
Briana Johnson
I am honored to be your ISDAR Chaplain for
2022-2024! My mother, Barb MacDougall, was
an ISDAR Chaplain twelve years before me and I
am delighted to follow in her footsteps. Thank
you to all of the Chapter Chaplains for the work
you also are doing! Please take a moment
to read through the updated Chaplain
instructions and you’re welcome to contact
myself with any questions.
Our State Regent Edee Brunia has
chosen this scripture for her
administration:
“Serve the Lord with gladness: come
before His Presence with singing.”
Psalm 100:2
