More Info

I have applied and been accepted into the Hillsong International Leadership College for the 1-year Certificate Dance stream. The dance stream’s goal is “to teach & train Christian dancers in the theoretical and leadership principles of dance, as well as preparing them to be able to lead a Dance Ministry in a local church.” In the program I am expected to partake in classroom and workshop learning along with practical involvement in the dance ministry within the church. Through this experience, I hope to emerge from this program as a stronger dancer both spiritually and technically.

I have chosen to take this step towards the Dance Stream because I have an earnest desire to develop my gift of dance, to gain further knowledge in leading and serving in every area of my life, and sharing all that I have learned with others. In order to move forward I am in need of people that would be willing to support me in both prayer and financially. I am currently seeking financial support for my 1st semester fees as well as my health insurance which totals roughly $4,000. While I do hope you prayerfully consider supporting me financially, I want to share every part of this journey with you all so what ever questions you have I encourage you all to email me at [email protected]. I love each and every one of you all and we are all on this journey together regardless what season you may find yourself. Let us stand together.

I will be telling my job that I am planning on leaving in January, turning in my visa application, working on moving plans, and PAYING MY SCHOOL FEES! This will be a beautiful month of Walking it out in true Faith! Please be in prayer for courage, that i would have total dependence on Jesus, and for favor throughout this entire process. Today I am getting my Visa application ready to send out! Yayyyy! It's becoming even more real but I love IT!

"To be Held"

i hold within my heart a treasure that cannot be hidden;

a light that a cannot be put out;

a song that will never stop;

poetry that resembles Your DNA;

a strength that can only be seen in weakness;

a hope that can only be reflected in hopelessness;

a peace that can only be heard in chaos;

life that is only relevant in death

& beauty that is reflected in His nail torn hands around my future;

Oh what a treasure it is to be held by Him

Journey to Courage

I must say starting this journey was not easier. I even considered walking away a few times but I remember vividly what God promised me in Isaiah 30:21 "Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way, walk in it,". So I walked a little bit forward but then I turned my back on it after some time had went past, so scared to take the step because i was afraid God would actually show up. This is a crazy notion because I prayed and people prayed that He would show up, but I guess I was not ready for the fear that would still await me.
But one day, a wise friend challenged me and from there i proceeded to take yet another step. Now look where that step has taken me; face to face with God's miraculous works in my heart & in my provision.
I am excited to say the fear isn't entirely gone, but there is truth solidified in my soul that He is ALWAYS with me through the rough times and the insanely beautiful times.

He loves me too much to leave me stranded!

"For the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go"
~Joshua 1:9

Raw Truth

Let this truth sink into your hearts!

Psalm 16-
1-2 Keep me safe, O God,
I’ve run for dear life to you.
I say to God, “Be my Lord!”
Without you, nothing makes sense.
3 And these God-chosen lives all around—
what splendid friends they make!
4 Don’t just go shopping for a god.
Gods are not for sale.
I swear I’ll never treat god-names
like brand-names.
5-6 My choice is you, God, first and only.
And now I find I’m your choice!
You set me up with a house and yard.
And then you made me your heir!
7-8 The wise counsel God gives when I’m awake
is confirmed by my sleeping heart.
Day and night I’ll stick with God;
I’ve got a good thing going and I’m not letting go.
9-10 I’m happy from the inside out,
and from the outside in, I’m firmly formed.
You canceled my ticket to hell—
that’s not my destination!
11 Now you’ve got my feet on the life path,
all radiant from the shining of your face.
Ever since you took my hand,
I’m on the right way.

"Beyond Bondage"

Freed from the bondage
clinging to the grace that rescued me with NO turning back;

I soar far above any storm
that I am facing;

Safe within the wings of mercy,
that rescued me from further captivity;

He is overjoyed & in love
with the thought of me,
dwelling and walking in freedom
that was never free.

He loves me dearly…

Amen.

Standing in Unity: I made the choice to follow Him

I have chosen to take this step towards the Dance Stream because I have an earnest desire to develop my gift of dance and gain further knowledge in leading and serving in every area of my life, and sharing all that I have learned with others. In order to move forward I am in need of people that would be willing to support me both prayerfully and financially. I am currently seeking financial support for my 1st semester fees as well as my health insurance which totals roughly $4,000. While I do hope you prayerfully consider supporting me financially, I want to share every part of this journey with you all so what ever questions you have I encourage you all to email me at [email protected]. I love each and every one of you all and we are all on this journey together regardless what season you may find yourself in. Let us stand together. Let me know how I can support you as well. I would love to hear what vision is on your heart.

"I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all" Ephesians 4:1-5
