First, is your meeting longer than 40 minutes?
If "no", and it's with 100 people or fewer, please setup your own FREE Zoom account, using your Hope email. (Or have a group leader setup an account with their email, etc.)
If you need up to 300 people to attend the meeting, and/or if your meeting is longer than 40 minutes, you need to reserve one of Hope ten Zoom rooms.
If your credentials aren't working, please confirm you've got the latest information, from here.
