Just a heads up:

I have also noticed that the Church emails are hitting my spam folder so if you feel like you are not getting all the emails. Check your spam folder and then mark them not as SPAM. Also this time of year you will notice a lot of fake emails. Always check the sender's address. If you have questions about an email please reach out.

Also if you got new tech and you have questions about it I am always willing to help you navigate it or learn it.
