Staying Connected

Learn how to stay connected with online resources and spiritual care at the UU Congregation at Shelter Rock via Zoom* meetings, and recorded video messages and encouragement. Know that you are not alone, feel the connections among us within our Beloved Community and beyond.

If you’re new to Zoom, it’s a good idea to download the app to your computer, tablet or smart phone in advance here: www.zoom.us/download. It will also download automatically when you click the direct meeting link, although you should plan to do so several minutes before your scheduled meeting/connection to allow enough time for installation.

Each meeting has a unique meeting ID number that will be required to join a Zoom meeting.

If you are joining via telephone, you will need the teleconferencing number provided in the invite.
