a team of young people learning what it means to have gifts from God to use for His glory…and how powerful they are when we step back and let Him use them…

Kickoff 2011!

Kickoff 2011...success!
a great night of music, food, fire, dance, volleyball, chillin...lots of fun.
and............a mashup dance.
6 members of this amazing ministry spent HOURS over the past 3 weeks learning a dance.
a long dance...to a variety of different songs.
and even though it seemed crazy and overwhelming (and i can't even pretend to completely sympathize because i learned about 30 seconds of the dance...and i was on vacation for a couple of the practices)
they practiced and they worked at it and gave it all to God and they totally ROCKED it.
it was choreographed, taught to the group, part of it taught to some extremely talented adult leaders ;), learned and performed in just a few weeks...
(i just attended a leadership conference and one of the speakers talked on being willing to work for God's miracles...i just blogged on it - you can read more here!
oh, the beauty of working for God ;)
its always an adventure and He can do things we can't.

i just want to say thanks to the team for spending so much time on it!
i love seeing your hearts for ministry :)
and special thanks to all the Adult Leaders who came out and braved the Footloose dance.
you were amazing! :) (and i'm not just saying that cuz i was one of them...;) )

i will hopefully have a video of the performance (even the ending that i wasn't allowed to see until we were in front of everyone - test of my trust and my control issues...haha - pass!)  
but until then...you can watch what happens when i'm on vacation and not at practice...
video...

i'm just glad they have fun :)
if there is anyone reading this who is creative or wants to use some of their creative gifts - art, painting, drawing, acting, dancing, whatever - join us!
we'll be posting some upcoming events...like art classes, dance classes, upcoming performances- and we would LOVE to have you join us by performing or writing dramas or whatever you feel called to do.
but please - contact us!

be blessed!
