A Primer for Lectors is a short guide to those who must read the lessons in church but do not know how. It explains how reading in church (being a lector) differs from other types of public speaking, and lays out a step by step guide to take the mystery (and the misery) out of the process. A Primer for Lectors guides the inexperienced church reader or lector. It can be used in any type of church setting in which the Word of God is proclaimed and has not been approved by any official group. (Then again, it hasn't been condemned, either.) Using plain language and typical readings for a Sunday in Ordinary Time (taken from the King James Version), the text lays out each step of the process, from initial reading of the text, through finding and de-fusing the landmines, to leading the congregation in psalms, and the actual Sunday performance. Breaking the process down into its steps, Primer helps the lay reader move from terror of the unknown to a calm cooperation with the Holy Spirit. The result is a more joyful and meaningful church experience for all.
