Although the key to a lector’s effective delivery is an awareness of God’s presence, it is very difficult to focus on the Word when in front of a congregation at Mass. Our Lector Workshop teaches readers to increase volume, use a microphone, pacing, punctuation, word emphasis and eye contact. With these skills lectors will overcome the distractions of public speaking, to enter fully into the Word of God. An insightful and inspiring workshop!
