Summer Greetings!

We did indeed "fly away" from 30 East Main, Ft. Pierre, due to roof problems there that the landlord does not want to fix. I began searching for a new location in July but with rentals tightened up due to the flood relocations, it has been hard to find an ideal spot for a dance studio. A couple of locations of interest are not available at this time... one in Ft. Pierre and one in Pierre. Thanks to Brad and Erika Bruns for storing the studio belongings.

As I continue to look, it has become apparent to me that we may be looking at a late start in the fall, perhaps even October 1st. I can understand if you are not willing to wait to sign up your dancers this year and want to enroll them elsewhere.

We are planning to do Narnia April 19th & 20th, 2012, and have reserved Riggs Theater for that event. The word is that there will be no dance recitals in May at Riggs and they would not let me book either of the last 2 weekends in April either... "saving it for school events."

Some of the advanced dancer and I, ten in all, have not ceased to dance all summer. Because we had evacuated the studio May 27th, the day before our performance, we had to move our practices to New Life Assembly of God sanctuary. We are grateful to them and thank them for their kindness. We are getting worship dances ready for Awaken Worship Fest at Riggs Theater, Saturday, August 13th, from 6 to 10 pm.

We also performed "I'll Fly Away" at New Life Assembly in June and "In Christ Alone" in July.

Ms. Sunny and Jenna Goehring drove to Kansas City July 10 where they attended a week of dance classes at Dramatic Truth, Christian School of the Arts in Missouri. The teachers were wonderful as was the student performance at the end of the week.

Side benefits of the trip included a visit to IHOP's (International House of Prayer) worship center and a stopover in Concordia, KS, where we walked through the beautiful gardens of the Nazareth Convent and viewed the magnificent structure surrounded by bigger than life statues.

Emily Plumage attended classes at Ballet Magnificat in Jackson, MS, the entire month of July. She also attended a week of dance classes in Bismarck, ND, at Northern Plains Ballet.

We have had the privilege of having Jenna Goehring home this summer to instruct us in modern dance and choreograph a new worship piece to "Your Great Name." Thank you, Jenna.

Also, a thank you to Noreen Plumage for hosting a Narnia evening of viewing dance dvds and munchies at her house Sunday, July 31st, attended by upper level dance students.



You have turned for me my mourning into dance;
- Psalm 30:11

The Greatest Gift of All in pictures - Act I

On Christmas Eve guests brave the cold streets on their way to the Schultz's annual Christmas party.
They greet a blind beggar on the way.

The guests arrive and Mrs. Schultz hands out ornaments for the children to decorate the tree




Excitement builds as they ready for the lighting of the tree

Everyone is awed when Mr. Schultz magically lights the tree







 the fun and dancing begins

After the party Claire falls asleep reading her bible and has a incredible dream...

Angels and Demons (Flies) are about
 big bad guy (Beelzebub Lord of the Flies) arives
 He and his Fly minions attack Claire 

  
Help arrives on the scene - Michael the Archangel and the Angel Troops
Battle begins


and we know who wins













 Beelzebub and his minion flies are defeated
The Archangel presents the Sword of the Spirit (which is the Word of God) to Claire


 The Bible comes alive before Claire's very eyes as she sees Mary and Joseph on their journey to Bethlehem



 Mary dances in praise to God  
Next Claire joins the shepherds ... what's that?

The heavenly host appears before them bringing the news of the Savior's birth




 
They lead the shepherds to the manager ...









to where the gift is born
coming up...
 
the Holy Spirit comes and leads Claire...

to the heavenly kingdom where the nations come to worship the Lord before His throne...
