On any given Sunday when you attend Sunday service, you may be favored with a dance from the Praise Dance Ministry and Mime Ministry at that Church. Praise dancers routinely usher in the atmosphere and begin the praise and worship services where there is no praise and worship vocal team.

For the past 15 years at St. Paul CME Church, located at 1201 N. 4th St., Orange, "Acts of Praise" Dance Ministry has been a part of the worship services.

Routinely sharing God's gifts with other churches throughout the Golden Triangle, this dance ministry has sustained 15 years. As with anything different, there are those who say "why dance?". This is a ministry and God has laid on the hearts of and minds of the young people and adults of "Acts of Praise" to carry out this vision. We truly believe Romans 8:31 - "If God is on our side, who can ever be against us?"

On March 21, at 6:00 pm, "Acts of Praise" will celebrate with a Night of Praise and Worship. Area dance ministries and mime teams are invited to take part in this night of celebration.
