A Course of Love – Online Groups

Via Zoom Videoconference or Telephone

What is Zoom Videoconferencing? Zoom is an easy-to-use online videoconference application that features high quality video, audio, and screen-sharing capabilities, resulting in an experience that comes close to an in-person meeting. You have the option to enable your camera, if you would like to be seen by other participants, or keep it off. You can join a Zoom meeting via computer (Windows, Mac or Linux) or mobile device (Android, iOS or BlackBerry).

You may also join a group that meets via telephone. Click here if you are looking for In-Person Groups.
