Lift Him Up Fearless Dance Empire In 2014, under the direction of Ms. LaKeisha Johnson, Fearless Dance Empire began as an after school program with 22 young ladies at Coldstream Park Elementary Middle School. She began the program, with the main objective being, to provide an artistic outlet that would change the lives of young students in Baltimore City. With the increase of senseless violence and deaths amongst young people across the country, she realized there was a serious need for students to express themselves within a positive and structured environment. Since dancing at the early age of three, she learned how arts education defines discipline, self-confidence, teamwork, and creativity and starting a holistic dance program would provide a platform for character development, academic success, as well as parent involvement. Within the first few years, the students have performed in Washington, DC, South Carolina, for Lieutenant Governor Boyd Rutherford, Baltimore City Housing Annual Youth Summit, Baltimore City s Mayor; The Honorable Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, at the Baltimore World Trade Center, headlined for various local, state, and federal government officials, various churches and events across Baltimore, and have even danced for VH1s Mendeecees Harris' speaker series. The program has now grown to 4 locations; partnering with 3 Baltimore City Public and Charter Schools, over 150 students, and a plethora of supporters. Ms. LaKeisha knows that every student may not want to become a professional dancer, moreover she understands that students have the ability to strive for their personal excellence; an act in itself is fearless. Students leave understanding that their, "deepest fear is not that they are inadequate, [their] deepest fear is that they are powerful beyond measure," after all who are they not to be? 1 How to reach the masses, men of ev- ry birth, For an answer Jesus gave the key: Refrain: Lift Him up, Lift Him up, Still He speaks from eternity: 2 Oh! the world is hungry for the Living Bread, Lift the Savior up for them to see; Trust Him, and do not doubt the words that He said, I ll draw all men unto Me. Refrain: Lift Him up, Lift Him up, Still He speaks from eternity: 3 Lift Him up by living as a Christian ought, Let the world in you the Savior see; Then men will gladly follow Him who once taught, I ll draw all men unto Me. Refrain: Lift Him up, Lift Him up, Still He speaks from eternity:

Ta`Brielle Daniels 17 Shelly Jones 24 Fannie Hill For: Sunday, May 14, 2017 God s Protective Love Lesson: Jonah 2:1-10 GOLDEN TEXT: I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the Lord. ( Jonah 2:9) TODAY S AIM: To understand that God provides protection both physically and spiritually. INTRODUCING THE LESSON: Our love for our children is modeled after God s love for us. We protect them physically from harm and spiritually from sinful influences. All of us protect our children, but let us take this thought one step further. Even when we discipline our children, we are desiring to protect them. We do not want to drive them away from us, so we protect their spirits by lovingly helping them have a right perspective on discipline. We will see this truth play out in our study this week from Jonah 2. PRACTICAL POINTS: 1. God s grace is evident as He helps us through the consequences of disobedience (Jonah 2:1). 2. There is no place too distant and no trouble so severe that our prayers cannot reach the ears of God (Jonah 2:2). 3. Believers benefit from God s discipline as they acknowledge their guilt and submit to God (Jonah 2:3). 4. God's ultimate goal in discipline is to redeem us and bring our hearts back to Him (Jonah 2:4-6). 5. Knowing God is committing to act based on what we believe about Him (Jonah 2:7). 6. As you go through difficulties, remember that God has already prepared your deliverance (Jonah 2:8-10). CONCLUDING THE LESSON: We all are thankful for the Lord s protection of us physically. All of us can recount instances of His intervention, sparing us from danger and harm. Let us think more about God s spiritual protection. What are the sources of spiritual danger in our lives? Some sources are: sinful people, evil influences around us, and the temptations of Satan. What means does the Lord use to protect us from spiritual danger? Some means are: Scripture, prayer, the counsel of others, the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and circumstances, as in the case of Jonah. Let us thank the Lord for His spiritual protection every day, and especially when we are more vulnerable during times of discipline. Let us avail ourselves of God s means of protection when we face spiritual dangers.
