 Technological enhancements continue to be made at Stone UMC!  

We have added the ability to hold “hybrid” meetings by adding wireless microphones, a wide-angle webcam and repurposing an unused computer on our media cart that typically lives in Miller Parlor.  September’s Church Council meeting was a “hybrid” with some folks in the room and others connecting over the web!  We will soon start training several members of different committees on how to use this system.  The cart can be moved to other locations as necessary since we now have wireless internet access throughout the entire building.

Thanks to the tech consultants at MobilCom who helped us through the application process, Stone UMC has received a donation of 10 Microsoft 365 licenses, which ensures that all of our church staff have access to the latest Microsoft Office productivity software and other modern collaboration tools.  We are working with MobilCom to see how we might be able to extend the use the Microsoft 365 software into our committees and other groups at Stone UMC after all of our staff and their computers have been moved to the new software platform.
