Thank you!

Firstly thank you all for staying way after the agreed upon time of 8pm. And for taking time to spend the first day of 08 with me, and the rest of the team.

I've said earlier that 07 has indeed been a year of several breakthroughs for us. The growth was slow but evident. The new additions to the team, as well as the old birds, you guys have really been a great support to me, and I cannot say enough of how much I thank God for each of you.

As we were sharing about our dreams of 08 and beyond, many of us agreed that we need a common vision from God to sustain this ministry. That such a vision will gel us together and build even greater friendships in this ministry. That we would grow to be not just a team of dancers, but a family who do life together. I am really encouraged by all of your visions for this ministry. Don't stop dreaming, but let's also be faithful with the little we have.

I really look forward to a year of great growth and am asking God to give me wisdom as I plan. I pray that each of you would also continue to fan this flame for God and ask Him to show you even greater visions. Let's not see with our human eyes and focus on our lacks, but let's look to God, because He's the very reason we are different from the world.

And as we push ourselves to give nothing but the best for this Feb ESS, I pray that God will annoint this team and we can truly use dance to not just entertain, but cause people to be moved to feel and think about our Creator.

love,
Jiali
