Last Friday, Light of the World Ballet Company and Trainees had the privilege of a unique opportunity...we got to perform in the city jail! We've been going to this jail for a few years now and it's such a blessing how God continues to open the doors! Most people think it's pretty crazy and out of the norm for a bunch of ballerinas to go perform in a jail. But we sever a pretty "out of the norm" kind of God! If we just walked into the jail and ask, "Who wants to listen to us talk about Jesus?" perhaps a few ladies would come, but because we come to perform and put on a show for these ladies they were glad to come. It was awesome to see throughout the course of the performance how even those who seemed a little hard-hearted at first were touched but God's love. We performed some of our Christmas choreography; it was wonderful to be able to use those dances to being joy into a normally rather depressing place. Trainee, Abigail Jenkins, shared a beautiful testimony about forgiveness and I believe God truly used it to impact those ladies! To God be the glory! ~Anna
