SPECIAL THANK YOU
We are sending out a special thank you to ATPF Supporter and Director of our ATPF Prayer Ministry! Karen led us in an incredibly uplifting presentation where she shared her story of strength, faith, love, and light that she has experienced in her 16 years as part of the ATPF Community.
We are so blessed to have so many amazing volunteers, supporters, and interns with huge hearts for our families and kids!

ZOOM PICTURE TAKING TIPS FOR VOLUNTEERS
|
|
Thank you to all our volunteers who are signing up for our virtual program events! Here are some great tips on how to take pictures of our virtual events:
In order to take photos of events, we would like to have ONLY screenshots of the zoom sessions, not a picture of the screen.
Photo Taking Instructions:
- If you cannot take a screenshot on your computer, use your phone
- Make sure to swipe to gallery view (the phone will only show 4 people at a time) and continue to swipe and screenshot to get photos of everyone
- Hide yourself (optional) and non-video participants
- To hide yourself, turn off your video
- Click on the 3 small dots in upper right hand corner of anyone who has their video off → select "hide non-video participants"
- Switch off taking gallery-style photos and individual photos of the kids/speakers
- Try to ask for one photo of everyone smiling at the camera (use gallery view) at beginning or end of event/meeting
How to take Screenshots:
- On MAC: press Command + Shift + 4 → then click and drag over area you want to screenshot → release to take photo
- On PC: Press the PRT SC or "Print Screen" button at the top of your keyboard
