Sheltering in place does not have to mean idle time. It also does not have to mean that you are alone. Thanks to all the amazing technology that’s out there we can connect with our loved ones via computer, tablet and phone.
I have been meeting virtually with clients easily through Zoom and TeamViewer for years now, and now that we are sheltering safely, these FREE tools have been invaluable. Please contact me if you need any tech support or instruction and we will get you sorted ASAP.

Other Ways to Connect with Loved Ones
FaceTime:
If you have a Mac or an iPhone/iPad, you can use FaceTime to see and hear your loved ones around the world.
Skype:
There is also the non-denominational Skype (all platforms). Destkop or mobile.
Google Apps:
Google also offers two ways to connect: Duo (app for Androids and iOS) and Google Hangout. Both desktop and mobile.
WhatsApp:
And lastly, WhatsApp through your phone can also provide free texting and video calls. Mostly mobile, with some desktop support.
I hope this finds you well and we all make it out of this better than ever.
