All participants are expected to read the participant book, Dancing with Words: Storytelling as Legacy, Culture, and Faith, by Ray Buckley, before taking this course.
For people of faith, storytelling has special meaning. We are people of the story, and we seek to identify and share our stories in nearly everything we do.
Participants in the course will:
- Learn what constitutes a good story;
- Discover storytelling styles;
- Learn the techniques of effective storytelling;
- Practice creating stories from their experiences.
For questions about the course, please contact Fairway district director Pam Strug (pstrug@nccumc.org).
