Dance, Dance, Dance!

Our lives seem to be revolving around dancing right now! Abigail's school dance group had their first dance competition last night. They were competing against 8 other schools in our borough. Each group performed 2 dances. One was a dance around the theme of seasons, the other was a free dance. Our kids did great! They were first up both times! On their second dance the CD kept cutting out, but they were stars and didn't let that phase them...they just kept dancing!! Unfortunately they didn't win any of the awards, but it has just inspired them to try again next year. (We forgot the camera so we don't have any pictures !!! )
We also have a dance team here from a school in Canada. They have come here on a missions trip to schools/communities using dance as tool to help them share the Gospel. Dean has the privilege of being their main contact in the UK so he has been arranging places/churches/schools etc for them to go to. They are here for a month! There are 1o dancers and 1 sound man. They are fantastic! You can check them out on myspace: www.myspace.com/refinedundignified.
Dean is running around like a mad man, but he has been able to make some good contacts/links with other churches in the area. Please pray that this team will be used to bring the Light to our local community. Pray for health/safety for all involved. It is a lot of work!!!
