Mission Statement

Highest Praise Dance Ministry

This statement is to make known our mission and the vision for this ministry. Our ultimate purpose is to give the Lord our God our "Highest Praise", to honor Him and give Him glory. We want the Lord to be lifted up and glorified through our weekly classes and any ministry opportunities that we may have.

Our purpose is also to be a ministry by joining our hearts together in prayer for one another.

Our desire is to equip these dancers with a way to worship God through music and dance. Through this they will also learn that this worship dancing can be used for ministering and in spiritual warfare. Our worship dance can somewhat be described as a combination of interpretive movement, mime, sign language, Jewish and ballet. We strive to maintain a humble attitude and we place emphasis on modesty in dress. Our music and theme is chosen each year through much prayer. The Lord has instructed us not to surrender and conform to the ways of the world but to persevere for His High Calling.

In accomplishing all of this we believe that it is essential that we be of one mind and in one accord. In the book of Acts we see the phrase "in one accord" constantly repeated. And we see also constantly the boldness with which the disciples ministered and prayed through the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Through this, God did many great works and many people came to the knowledge and salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ.

This ministry submits to the authority of Jesus Christ, falls under direct leadership of John Lewis (Music Minister) and Calvary Church. Cynthia Jentz is the Director of the Ministry and has been called by God to lead this Ministry.

Psalm 150
Praise the Lord!
Praise God in His santuary; Praise Him in His mighty firmament!
Praise Him for His mighty acts;
Praise Him according to His excellent greatness!
Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet;
Praise Him with the lute and harp!
Praise Him with the timbrel and dance;
Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes!
Praise Him with loud cymbals;
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord!
