Liturgical Public Speaking

Are you a lay person who has volunteered -- or wants to volunteer -- to read Scripture in your local parish church?  Are you someone who's been asked to lead the Prayers of the People, or give a homily, or do special readings during Advent or Lent?  This course will improve your speaking ability, give you a boost of confidence in your abilities, and it's fun besides (ask your Editor how she knows!)  It's available on Zoom for those who can't get to it in person.
