The summer is a great time to take stock of your needs and pump new life into your ministry! Here are 10 simple steps that you can take during the summer that will benefit you, your ministry and members.
  1. Take a break or sabbatical - Everybody needs a break sometimes!
  2. Get training for your ministry - Study to increase your dance vocabulary
  3. Do a garment/instrument inventory- Do you need to repair, replace or release your garments or instruments? Now is the time. 
  4. Buy new garments - Do you have the garments that reflect the upcoming dances that you will minister?
  5. Host a FUNdraiser - You need money to carry out the mission of the ministry. Raise it or at least plan you yearly fundraising calendar and create the committees. 
  6. Fellowship with each other or another worship arts ministry. There is nothing like eating together or doing fun activities to increase the intimacy and relations of your ministry so that you are all on one positive accord. 
  7. Get inspired:
    1. Go see a dance performance in person
    2. Go to the zoo
    3. Go to the park
    4. Watch a dance movie
    5. Go to the ocean
    6. Do one of your dances backward
    7. Let the dancers choreograph a song
  8. Plan your 6 – 12 months dance calendar - ORGANIZATION is the KEY to SUCCESS!
  9. Have a dance ministry lock-in. - Again team building activities will reflect in your dances and to the unity of the group.
  10. Meet with your pastor and discuss your goals, visions and budget for the year.- Keep him informed. He is your covering. He needs to know and approve of what you are doing. He can also give the new mission, vision and focus or the church so that your dances will enhance, reflect and support the ministry message and purpose. 
 
There are many other things that you could do to enrich your ministry during the summer. Be creative and share with me what you do during the summer!
