[Faith-Talk] virtual participation in national convention

[bookwormahb at earthlink.net]

Hello,

The stream was working for me this afternoon on zoom.

 

Armando, I did not use youtube yet, but if you like you tube, then go for it.

I’ll probably try that way tomorrow.

 

Enjoy convention!

Ashley

Hi all,



First, Happy Independence day, a day late! 

We had a nice time. My parents and I enjoyed fireworks as well as a harty
lunch out. 

We had one of America's favorite picnic type foods, hot dogs at a local
restaurant.



I thanked God for all the blessings and freedoms we have in our country!



Well, I want to hear convention.

I have a lot going on such as helping my dad out who is recovering from
surgery.

I did want to hear the convention live though!



Is anyone having problems with the webinar option for participation?



I tried three times to join the zoom webinar mid morning.

It simply says waiting for the host when I enter the meeting.



Is there another way? A different webinar ID or link?

I also have my echo here and the stream is not on the Alexa skill today.
However, it worked fine yesterday!



I wonder if they have tech issues. If they did, I wish someone would send
out a email to virtual registered attendees to inform us when the stream
would  be available.

I realize streaming from a hotel is challenging and bad connections  can
happen due to weather issues and factors not in our control.

I wish I had an update what is happening.



If anyone on list was able to hear the stream on the Amazon echo or via the
zoom webinar, please let me know!



Thanks,

Ashley

PS, I used the main convention ID

Webinar ID: 916 8496 8543
