"HIM Ministries"

Friday morning we performed at Believer's Chapel for "HIM Ministries", Home Instruction Ministry, (a home school co-op group) started by Ashley's sister. After a 7:30am warm-up at the studio we drove to Believer's Chapel for our performance at 10am. We performed Lifesongs and our Spanish dance, Montana. Between those two pieces Alyssa gave her testimony. The children were very attentive. There were around fifty boys and girls between the ages of two and twelve. Afterward we were divided into two groups by age. They had requested for a Sugar Plum Fairy and Ruby Fairies for this part of the morning! I was the Sugar Plum Fairy and everyone else were the Rubies. I got my picture taken with all of the little girls and even some of the older girls. It was fun! Alyssa and I had the four and five year olds for forty-five minutes and then the two and three year olds for another forty-five minutes. They were so cute and well behaved! We taught them some basics of ballet and a short dance. At the same time, Ashley, Breanne, and Rachel took two groups of older girls. They gave a talk about purity and how unique and special God has made each of them as well as taught them a short dance. We were also able to pray for these girls. It was really nice to connect with all of them. It was also nice to be able to encourage these home school families as all of us were home schooled at some point. Afterward they gave us a delicious lunch before leaving. It was a fun morning!
