Community Meeting Agenda 19 January 2010

We will use MeetingPlace for the Community Meeting on 19 January 2010.

To Attend the Meeting:

• Go to MeetingPlace or MeetingPlace Home and enter your Meeting ID 9111 and click the "Attend Meeting" button
• If requested, Sign in with your LDS Account or as a Guest
• Select the desired "Connect Me" options and enter the phone number that you want MeetingPlace to call you at
• Click the Connect button

To Attend the Meeting Without Using your Computer:

• Dial into 801-240-2663 (Local/International) or 877-453-7266 (US Toll-free)
• Follow the prompts to enter the Meeting ID 9111 and join the meeting

First-time users should run the MeetingPlace Test to verify they can participate in a web meeting. Since November we have had problems calling into Adobe Acrobat for the audio portion of the meeting. I hope that by using MeetingPace, the audio portion of the meeting will be easier to join, and the recording of the meeting will also be improved.
