CinDay Guild of NBS
The Cincinnati-Dayton Guild of the Network of Biblical Storytellers learns, tells and enjoys stories of the biblical tradition, and other stories as well. We are a diverse group of people and we welcome newcomers.
Normally we get together every fourth Thursday of the month. We meet either at United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio or at Forest Chapel in Cincinnati (alternating months, January-October). Our next meeting will be August 26, 2010 at United Theological Seminary.

Recent Meeting
Thanks to Tipp City UMC for hosting the June meeting. What a great facility! Joyce Orr offered tips and practice for learning stories on your own. Story learning workshops are great, but you're at the mercy of the facilitator to select the story, and the group for exercises like Lion Hunt and Call & Response. If you're going to be a storyteller, you also need some tips and tricks for learning stories on your own, rather than waiting for a workshop.

We welcome anyone who has an interest in the interiorization of sacred stories for the enrichment of their own spiritual journey, the benefit of their faith community, or simply for the fun and satisfaction of telling a good story.
