At the beginning of February, the Institute of Church Development began the implementation of two projects. The School of Speakers and the II edition of the School of Worship gathered participants from various cities of Lower Silesia, representing several churches.
The workshops focus on topics such as: How to lead a church in a dynamic and God-praised worship? How to work with the biblical text while preparing a sermon? How to control stress and emotions during public speaking? The training leaders are responsible for these and many other questions.
Classes are conducted by experienced teachers and practitioners, among whom there are lecturers of EWST, people who conduct worship every day and specialists in areas such as speech therapy.

The following gives program details of the School of Speakers and the School of Worship and information about the teachers and dates.
The School of Speakers
All those whose ministry includes speaking before people are encouraged to take part in this project. During the workshops, we will answer the following questions:
- How to practically prepare for speaking as a speaker?
- How to work with the Biblical text while preparing a speech?
- How to use your voice or gestures in a conscious way?
- How to deal with stress or other difficulties during the speech?
During a series of five meetings, participants will explore the spiritual aspects of public speaking and take part in workshops. Each participant will be able to expand their knowledge of speaking to a smaller or larger group of recipients. The course is an opportunity to develop skills under the guidance of experienced lecturers, fill in gaps and discover the strengths during the workshops.
