Zoom meeting
Mini GET-TOGETHER
SEW-IN
We can't be with each other physically, so we decided to do it virtually. A Zoom meeting mini GET-TOGETHER SEW-IN to work on our own projects within our own homes, BUT TOGETHER. I did a test run last night and it worked perfectly. If you have a smartphone, iPad, laptop, Chrome or Netbook, a computer that has video and microphone capabilities then you can join in the zoom platform. We will be able to talk, see, laugh, and share together in the guild virtual world.
We will be sending you more information on how to join a Zoom meeting via Smartphone at a later date as there is one extra step. ***Check your emails***

COH will be setting up tables for us and we need to know how many to set up.
COH East is excited to have us there and was very warm and friendly to us when we met with them. The room is large and we will be able to have one of our cabinets there. (Yea!). Will need to sweep and wipe tables when done.
They know we are a secular group with various religions and beliefs. But in order to meet at COH we need to have something that has a God factor. What Cindy and COH has agreed on is that during our meetings if someone has a need and would like to have us pray for them we will log it into a journal. Then a group of us will pray for the request during the week at home. If you would like to be a part of the Prayer Warrior Team let Cindy know. She needs help! We will not impose this on anyone who does not feel comfortable.
Bring your own drinks. We cannot use coffee maker because of Covid regulations. They have microwave and refrigerator we can use.
We will continue the $1 donations. Money will be donated to the food pantry.
If you like to donate food to the pantry, the food we donate will go to the homeless ministry or the Police officer lounge. Items to donate are small portion item, canned food with pop top lids, all premade food, or $10 gift cards to Publix or Walmart.
Also please no swearing or talking off color topics.
Looking forward to getting back to sewing with everyone.
