GOLD, Inc.
God’s Ordained Liturgical Dance Praise Dance School of Ministry
GOLD, Inc. provides services such as: dance workshops, conferences, seminars and lectures to dance ministry teams age 13 years and older; however, the heart of this ministry is for dance leaders; the ones leading the dance ministries in the church. This ministry is most beneficial to leaders because truly, if you give a man a fish, he and his family eat one meal, but if you teach a man to fish, he and his family can eat an entire lifetime. The teaching and instruction given in this course curriculum will equip leaders and their dancers to win a lifetime battle against the enemy in every area of their lives by utilizing what God has said in scripture concerning dance.
