Dance and Evensong

Updated for December 2023

NOTE THAT WE WILL MEET ON SECOND SUNDAY (10th) NOT FIRST SUNDAY THIS MONTH.

Let me introduce you to Dance and Evensong.  It’s designed to provide a new opportunity for dance for Christian young people, while at the same time be an outreach to believers and barely-believers.  The basic idea is that on a Sunday evening we will have a dance (this will hopefully attract a good number of young people), then pizza (who doesn’t like that?), and then a special service called Evensong.  Evensong is an Anglican service sometimes called it’s crown jewel.  It’s beautiful, not too long, and the liturgy and prayers are all biblically-focused.  

Dances will be the normal ones we do: Swing, Tango, Foxtrot, Waltz, and English Country.

Invite as many friends as you think are interested.  A big idea for DAE is to attract unbelievers and barely-believers so they can hear the gospel.  It will not be high-intensity manipulation, just a simple exposition of Scripture and a gospel presentation of what Christ has promised to all who believe on Him.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
