Christmas Eve at Messiah Lutheran Church

We were very thankful for the opportunity to dance during three church services at Messiah Lutheran in Lakeville.  It was a beautiful service and included a live appearance of Joseph, Mary, and a real new born baby, Jesus!  Pastor Bob’s message was full of the love of Jesus Christ.  Thanks to all of the ladies who gave up their Christmas Eve to serve!

Breakthrough Night

We were blessed by a lovely evening at Breakthrough Ministries (www.breakthroughmn.org) where we danced some fun Christmas songs for many who are homeless.  It was a joy to get some of them up dancing with us to Silent Night and the energetic version of the Little Drummer Boy by Mandisa.
