We are very pleased with our dancers who took their dance into mainstream dance conventions and scholarship auditions this season. Over and above regular training, these dancers showed commitment, teamwork, character, and skill. May the Lord continue to use the young
generations to share their faith in a way that hearts will respond to the love and hope found in Jesus Christ.
