Has life taught you some hard-won lessons? Do you have a story to tell? Has your spiritual life grown and deepened over the years? Have you ever watched someone preach and thought “I could do that!” or “I could never do that!” This class is for you! Rev. Claire will lead you through a 6 session course, during which participants will support each other in the art of sermon writing and delivering. Each participant will receive a copy of The Shared Pulpit by Rev. Erika Hewitt. Participants may be invited to preach their sermon at Follen during Claire’s sabbatical June 15-Dec 14.

Up to ten participants will be accepted: to apply, please email Rev. Claire a description of why you wish to take the class, and your ability to make all six dates. Participants will be chosen to include a diversity of voices.

First four sessions: Wednesdays March 27, April 3, April 17, May 1, 7-9 pm;

Last two sessions (workshopping): Sundays May 12, May 19, Noon-2:30pm
