Enhancing Worship (2026)

Course

An exploration of the nature of worship and varieties of worship in the Church of England

This 6-week module provides an opportunity to explore the nature of worship, varieties of worship in the Church of England, and the practical skills needed to both design and lead acts of worship.

These acts of worship may be in parish churches or new worshipping communities, seek to be inclusive of all ages and backgrounds and enable all to live confidently as disciples in everyday life.

The course is delivered in six face-to-face sessions in a learning community where wisdom is shared by all. Participants are encouraged to complete preparatory work prior to each meeting. Different speakers with expertise in various types of worship will deliver teaching, and each session begins with a different style of worship.

The sessions all start with refreshments and fellowship at 7.00pm before the session begins at 7.30pm, and they finish by 9.30pm. The module takes place at Earl Stonham Village Hall near Stowmarket.
