We will be bringing up some much needed, and requested, gently-used teenage clothing to a northern Canada native reservation the first week in April. Please go through your closets (or ask friends and neighbors) for any items!
Bring to dance on MARCH 21 or MARCH 28 only!
Your gifts will be very much appreciated by those struggling to cloth their teens.

Hi friends and dance ministry partners,
I’ve been praying and feel God wants me to dance “God’s Not Dead” by the Newsboys
for the River of life conference Feb. 23rd in St. Paul. (It’s my Valentine’s present to Jesus)
If you would like to join me, please watch this video Rich made (thank you, hubby!) and hopefully we can coordinate something simple but powerful. Lynn said that she may have a big flag of a lion by the time of the conference. So cool!!! Pass on the link to anyone who may be interested. And please pray it will come together quickly
Love, Jolene (Adult Glory Dancer)
Hello Freedom To Dance Dancers,
We have one more practice at Hosanna! in the Activity Center on this Thurs, Feb 21 at normal times. We will be finalizing our plans for our Feb 23 event in St Paul. If you are planning on dancing on Saturday, it’s important that you are able to make this practice.
NO PRACTICE ON FEB 28 as we do not have space, so we’ll be taking a week off and then moving to Good Shepherd on March 7.
Our Freedom To Dance groups will be dancing at the River of Life Praise Event on Saturday, Feb 23 at 6:00 pm. This is also open to other churches and groups, so we’re hoping to see many partnering with ROL.
River of Life Directions: http://www.riveroflife-cc.net/locations__directions.html
This is a praise event where churches from around the cities unite in celebration of dance. Each group (and some soloists/duets) present worship pieces to the congregation. We’ve been attending this event for so many years, I cannot count. It is an amazing cultural experience just for Jesus. We highly encourage you to participate in this event. Parents (and anyone else) is invited to come to sit through the event. The event is free; however, they do take an offering.
Freedom To Dance will be dancing:
Joy & Alleluia Dancers: What the Lord Has Done For Me
Spirit Dancers: Me Without You
Glory Dancers: Resurrection Chant
For the evening event, we will be setting up our spacing and practicing, so please arrive by:
Sat, Feb 23 6:00 starting time of event
4:00pm – Glory Dancers
4:30pm – Spirit Dancers
5:00pm – Alleluia & Joy Dancers
When you arrive, ask the person at the door where “Freedom To Dance” has their things. We will be given a room to put our coats. If we are not in the room at the time, go upstairs to the sanctuary.
WHAT TO WEAR: Dress in all black – black pants and a plain black shirt. Make sure that pants and shirt are not too tight. Make sure that when you raise your hands up that stomachs do not show. No tank tops or scoop or v-neck shirts. We are to remain modest in our dress. For feet, barefoot or dance shoes.
LOCATION OF EVENING EVENT: 759 Summit Ave, St Paul, River of Life Christian Center (It tooks a little like an office-type building and not a traditional looking church).

DAY WORKSHOP
There will also be a workshop from 9am – 12pm that day. There will be a couple different teachers. I have been blessed to be one of the teachers. I will be teaching for an hour on streamers, flags, and billows. The workshop is open from kids age 10+ – adults. Several of us are already signed up. Cost is $25 for adults. $20 for kids. The cost includes lunch. If you have your own streamers and/or flags, please bring them. If you will be going to the workshop, please email rolcc_@msn.com to confirm. You can pay at the door.
After the workshop, we will be teaching the dance portion for the Easter dance event at the Mall of America. Everyone is welcome to join, including parents and all others.
See you on Thursday! We will be practicing our event songs!
