Misa is a small village in the middle of Latvia, which was established as a peat production facility, which was formed around the workers’ village. There are about 700 inhabitants in Misa.
Lutheran Hour in cooperation with the association “Sunflower” organized event “ Time to dance”. Around 40 families gathered together for event. Shortly before the event we saw the big bus stopping near the house of culture of Misa and the smiling children and their parents and grandparents were coming out of it one by one!
After the opening of the event, parents went to the next room to listen to the lecturer of Kaspars about good parenting
Teenagers and children remained in the hall along with the dance teacher Leida. About 80 kids (3-17 years old) studied the Christian hip-hop dance. Since the age of the children were so different, they were divided into several groups. Each group studied the dance accordingly to their age and ability to perform appropriate program.
In the conclusion all groups danced together- in honor of the birth of the Jesus!
After the repetition kids were ready to show to their parents their dance, but the parents were so involved in discussion that they had with the lecturer, that the children had to wait for a while.
After the final dance kids and their families received had a little gifts from Lutheran hour and they were all very grateful and happy.
Lutheran Hour also had a big surprise – Silinu family gave us the beautiful gift – embroidered angel that allowed all of us to feel the true message of the up-coming Christmas.
