Dance Where You Are at TPC

We had a joyful time together with residents and staff at Tucker Park Crossing as we shared a set called “Dance Where You Are.” Psalm 149:1,3—“Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song … praise his name with dancing.” Every one of the eleven songs got our toes tapping, our hands waving, and our voices singing. Our set today was an invitation to dance and a reminder that no matter what we can or can’t do, no matter how we feel, no matter what is going on inside us or around us, we are always welcome to dance where we are! Patricia, Shelly, JR, Paul, and Karen teamed up for this high energy set on a hot-lanta summer day!

“Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we’re here, we might as well dance!”

“Life is hard, God is good, let’s dance!”
