As the spread of COVID-19 continues to disrupt everyday life and challenge everyone’s sense of normalcy, I want to take a moment to express solidarity, gratitude, and awe at the efforts and sacrifices everyone is making to help “Flatten the Curve” and save lives. 

It’s important to focus on the positives in challenging times like these, and to remind ourselves why we’re making the sacrifices of practicing self-isolation and social distancing. The good news: Our efforts are working - so let’s keep it up!

I also want to assure everyone that while we all transition to remote work as employees clock in from home, Words Over Seas can guarantee the same level of quality and customer satisfaction as always. Our international team of translation experts already work across the globe; we can and will continue to provide the degree of personal care and attention to detail that our customers have come to expect from us. 

Finally, while we stay physically isolated from one another, it’s vital we stay socially connected. Whether it’s a Skype Happy Hour with old college roommates, a virtual movie night with out-of-state family, or anything in between, the love, support, and faith we share with one another is crucial to staying mentally and physically healthy throughout these times. Stay home, wash your hands, and stay connected (albeit virtually)! We will get through this - together!


Blessings and Shalom to you and your family!
