Video Conferencing through Zoom

The United Methodist Center is following the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines. As a result, the Conference Office will not host any groups in the near future. In the meantime, consider using phone and video conferencing software like Zoom. It's free for small groups of up to 100 people.
