Heather, a friend of mine who was on staff here with us had a passion for bringing life and healing to this country through dance. She worked with girls who had been effected by abuse, rape, prostitution, and other difficult situations and taught them through dance how to control their bodies, how to view themselves as something beautiful, how to use their bodies to praise God, that they were created with a purpose, and to take back what was stolen from them. So often we forget about the arts and using it as a ministry. But Heather saw dance as part of this culture and she was able to reach deeper into the hearts of these little girls than most people could reach. A dance team recently came to Battambang from the School of Dance in Montana. This team was filled with people from all different nations and because of Heathers previous obedience to start dance ministries here, this team was really able to flourish and do a lot of fruitful ministry. Every time I saw them dance I felt the Holy Spirit rain in this place.
