Virtual Story Circle Training Thurs. June 4th

Registration Cost: $20 per person

Please plan on discussion during the lunch break so bring your own snacks to the meeting :-)

In the training, leaders will go through a story circle based on the same process used to create the theatrical production: a story of a woman from the Bible will be read, a question asked about a theme related to the woman's story, and the the room will then follow the circle to allow responses in personal story format to the question.  Every story circle is followed with a time for crosstalk, which allows participants to respond to each other's stories.  The leader will then facilitate a short expressive arts response to the stories with the group.  After a short break, the group will then process the story circle experience, engage in a Q&A session, and receive a step-by-step guide of how to facilitate circles in their communities.  Participants will then go through exercises that train them in creating questions, overseeing crosstalk, and leading follow-up responses.
