Moving Spirit Dance Ministry

Moving Spirit Dance Ministry

 April 2008

 

Our spring has sprung into action these past few weeks and the dancers have been wonderful!

On March 28th, 20 dancers and 7 additional friends, along with 10 adults served at Feed My Starving Children. Over 1500 meals were bagged which allows 31 people to eat for an entire year! What an incredible experience to step out together to make a difference in the world!

The (yellow/green/red/blue) dancers who were in service on April 6th with the Senior High Bell Choir truly did a lovely service! They listened closely and served beautifully! One of our bigger dancers, Emily Luckhardt commented on how nice it was to see the difference in the final piece between a rehearsal and the actual service with the bell choir!

Big kudos to Kylee Glitto for being ready to jump in to fill in for any missing dancer on that day! Our dancers are awesome! If you get a chance, give Hanna Hankes grandfather, Bob Korthauer a super big hug for his handy-dandy work in re-designing the cross poles for the bell piece!  

Our bigger dancers (Purple/Pink/Orange/Black) will be in service on April 13th with the Now Team at the 10:30am contemporary service. There will be a special dress rehearsal with the Now Team this Tuesday, April 8th at 7pm. Please wear what you wore on Palm Sunday. On Sunday, April 13th, please arrive by 9am and be ready to rehearse in the FLC by 9:15am. This will allow us a chance to work out problems with the thrust stage before we run the piece with the NOW Team.

Rehearsals have been loaded with so many different services to work on, but now everything is simplifying! Once this Sunday service is over, there will only be three dances left to work on!  Please review the rehearsal schedule carefully.

On April 20th, rehearsal will be OFF-SITE due to a huge group occupying the entire church. We will rehearse at DanceWorks Performing Arts Center in Lakeville. This is the studio where Gina and I teach and some of our dancers dance! Traveling south on Cedar towards Farmington; at the corner of Cedar and Dodd road, turn right (west) on Dodd road – CVS store on your right! Go one block and take your first right on 175th street. Go one block – studio on your right – just behind New Horizon Daycare. Studio’s number (952)432-7123.

May 11th Pentecost Sunday piece “I’ll Never Stop Believing” will be final Service Sunday for the season. We are asking parents to find the following by May 1st… For the GIRLS: white cargo-Capri pants / a white shorter top with a Red shirt (cami) peaking out underneath. Target has white Capri pants for $9.99 / Check Wal-Mart and other sources. For the “Guys” – instead of white cargo pants, please find tan-khaki cargo pants / White open button down shirt – with red shirt underneath. Some dancers already have something in their collection at home! This will be an easy outfit to wear in the summer! All dancers will wear clean tennis shoes.  If you have any questions, contact Gina or myself.

Keep your calendar open for Sunday, June 1st (1pm-3pm) for the annual end of the year Moving Spirit Dance Ministry Family Gathering. This year we will be at Jensen Lake Shelter located off of Pilot Knob. In case of severe weather, we will meet at the Hutchinson’s home, located in Rosemount. Look for more details that will be sent out in May.

Thank you again for all of your incredible support of this dance ministry. All of the dancers enjoy the blessing of fellowship and the ability to share our humble gift of dance to praise and worship our Lord Jesus Christ!

Sharing God’s message

One step at a time, this is how we pray!
