Taking the words of God’s Holy Book, the inspirations from a sermon, the reflections of a poem, the lyrics of a hymn or song, and forming a fluid movement of praise. It can be via the solitude of a soloist, the togetherness of a duet, the contrast of a trio, the balanced evenness of a quartet, or the continuum of an entire harmonious troupe. We express human emotion from the slowest, quietest reverence, to the most spirit-filled excitement of celebration to the solemnity of sorrow to the urgency of desperation to the individuality of life’s experiences to the appreciation of the beauty of our Creator to the love of God through Jesus Christ, and share it with all people with the authority and certainty of the truth of our God, who is Love, Hope, and Divine Grace.

The purpose of the Dance Ministry of the Metropolitan Church of God is to express praise and worship through the form of liturgical dance. We seek to combine the art of movement which evokes the body, mind, and spirit in an effort to connect with God. Through our dance, we aim to touch someone’s heart and have other’s feel the energy and wonder of glorifying the Lord.

Rehearsals are typically 2-3 times per/month or more in preparation for worship. Dance apparel is provided unless otherwise indicated. Some formal dance training is highly preferred but not required. We welcome all those who have an interest and willingness to serve God through the many forms of liturgical praise dance. If interested, please contact Nikki Knott at Dance@Metropolitancog.org  or call (313) 806-8486.
