Worship & Dance

In January 2006, I felt God calling me to worship leading. While I did step into singing at this point, I failed to step into playing guitar, and for almost three years now, I have been disobedient in this calling.

I was worried that coming here for 7 months would mean that this calling would be put off seven months longer. But God stepped in and basically dumped opportunities in my lap! It started with volunteering to play for my local outreach team in the red light district. I also joined a worship team in which to sing and offer musical input.

But God didn’t stop there. I was given the opportunity to lead worship for the first time in a congregational setting this past Monday morning for the entire base of over 100 people. It was amazing to see my guitar skills drastically improve overnight and to see God totally come through! It brings me so much joy to lead worship, and I’m so thankful that after almost three years of not following God in this area, He didn’t give up on me or remove this calling!

I have also had the chance to teach dance here. After hearing that I was a dance teacher back home, several girls expressed interest in doing some classes here at the base. So every other week I have been teaching hip-hop classes. I have had 15-20 students coming! It is great to be able to use my gifts to bless others!
