Portsmouth Diocese Online Training Day for clergy, readers, lay worship leaders and church musicians. Led by Helen Bent.

About this Event

This engaging and interactive online training day will provide an opportunity for guided reflection on our experiences of worship during the Covid-19 pandemic. How has worship changed and developed in that time, what have we learnt and what will we take back into the ‘new normal’?

Drawing on examples from the Bible and church history, the day will include input, interviews with other experienced practitioners, discussion in breakout rooms and worship. Handouts and a resources’ list will be available at the end of the day. Each session will start on the hour to make it easy to join in for all or part of the day.
