Arise

On June 20th, LWB company had the privilege of performing The Crown alongside the students of Arise, a summer workshop hosted by River City Dance (a Christian dance school in Lewiston, Idaho). We had been teaching the students parts of The Crown along with ballet technique, modern, conditioning, improv, pointe, devotions, and creative worship classes that week, and they had been very quick learners! The students did an awesome job learning the ballet in only four days, and it was a lot of fun watching them come out of their shell, and grow in their dramatic interpretation skills as well as their technique. The performance went well, and we were so blessed by our time with both the students and the staff of River City Dance. It was so neat to see how God is moving Idaho! ~Cayla

12 Days of Praise

Light of the World Ballet Company had the awesome opportunity of joining in with other churches in Lewiston, Idaho to worship the Lord in the middle of the city! For 12 days, churches from the area joined together and lifted their worship right in the middle of Lewiston. We were honored to be included in this awesome time. We were all praying that the Lord would hold back the rain, as it had been raining pretty hard that afternoon. However, just as we were getting ready to load in and drive down to the 12 days of praise, the rain completely stopped! We made it about half way through our 1-hour performance without any rain at all. Just as we were beginning the dance "Praise You in This Storm", the rain began again. As much as I, personally, thought that it would not be fun to do this performance in the rain, I thoroughly enjoyed getting to praise Him right through the storm!...literally :-) We began to get a little concerned for those in the audience who were getting poured upon, but when Miss Ashley asked if they would like us to end a little early, they protested and asked us to continue. We finished the evening off with a time of group time of dance, intercession, and worship. It was so powerful to be able to unify our hearts in worship and shake the city with praise! I know that those 12 days will leave a lasting impact on Lewiston! We are so grateful to have been able to be a part! ~Breanne :-)

River City Church June 16, 2013

Light of the World Ballet Company performed 'Alive' for both Sunday morning services for River City Church. The church was so welcoming and we really enjoyed the worship and teaching, twice through! Their stage was slightly rounded on the edges, but performing went smoothly and we fit ourselves on it without nicely. It was a great way to kick off the beginning of our week in Idaho! Blessings, Alyssa P.S. Below is a picture of the company exploring Idaho and trying to be like Lewis & Clark...! \
