UPDATES AND TESTIMONIES

Hola Familia,

Familia, I am missing you! I love you, I love you, I love you! How have you been? You are probably inundated, now that the children are back in school. Okay, so I won't keep you but I had to tell you about Dancing Preacher's International (DPI) in Puerto Rico.

The DPI conference was awesome and many lives have been transformed. I heard so many testimonies from the delegates, you must read their faith walk below. During this time of economic hardship, the saints traveled to Puerto Rico with little, to hear one word from God. My God! Their faith was matched with miracles. Two consistent phrases from everyone is that their life will never be the same and this has been the best Dancing Preacher's ever! Only God can do more with less.

We had dance evangelism on the streets and many people were saved and lives have been changed. Puerto Rico has been declared for Jesus and we are once again mapping out the Nations with our feet!!!!!!!!



Thank God for Facebook (FB) and social networking. I was able to do a day to day recap during the conference on Facebook. You must join me there; we'll also have the ability to chat more frequently, Join me on FB today!

Oh yeah, Please join our new SMM Book Club and visit my website for updates. Before we recap the conference, let's catch up! My children are back in school and right back to all of their extracurricular activities. I am the full-time mom and part-time chauffeur. LOL. Here are some photos of little Miss Imani, she is growing up so quickly.






I am also back in school and my course schedule is off the meter (full). This is my last year at the Interdenominational Theological Center (ITC) GLORY!! I had my senior audit and have been measured for my cap and gown. This is a good place to shout, pick them up and put them down!

Sunday, I was in Detroit and had a fabulous time. Special thanks to Triumph Dance Ministry who always shows me much love. Carlos you did an awesome job ministering and your best is yet to come! Pastor Kinloch delivered a powerful word, get the CD.



I am traveling to New York in October and looking forward to visiting friends and family. Join us!

Regarding the International Dance Commission: If you want to Network with other dance leaders from around the world, join us on the IDC Ning Network today. I am also accepting applications for International Dance Coordinators. Let's serve the community together, we must aid in stopping the violence. Chicago has major issues but tomorrow it might be your State. Don't just dance about it, be about it! The IDC is planning a pilgrimage to Israel 2010, inviting everyone to come join us, as we "Return To Worship."

Last week I met the Honorable Xernona Clayton, President and CEO of the Trumpet Awards. The Trumpet Awards is a prestigious event highlighting African American accomplishments and contributions. Initiated in 1993 by Turner Broadcasting.

In early September I traveled to Greenville South Carolina for the E3 Worship Arts conference, Oh my! What a mighty move of GOD! Ministers Dawain and Andrietta Atkinson hosted a fantastic conference. It was such a blessing meeting dance ministers from all around the world and fellowshipping.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve. I was privileged to teach several classes (i.e. God's Armor Bearer; "Dancing Preachers" ~ The Word Made Flesh). Additionally I was afforded the opportunity to bring the preached word on Friday morning. The Holy Spirit directed me with a sermon was entitled, "Put on Your Holy Ephod because it's Time for War" and "Your Adversity is Provoking You into Gods Presence." Through your confrontation, you will receive more revelation. "Crisis breeds opportunity"

MY DANCING PREACHERS INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE AND THANK YOU'S




I have been speaking Spanish ever since we returned from Dancing Preachers International. Puerto Rico is such a beautiful place and we truly had a great time. The delegates have made this years conference the best "Dancing Preachers ever!" That would not have been possible without your prayers & support.

Dancing Preachers came to worship from Jamaica, Bahamas, Barbados, London, Canada, Israel, Trinidad, Africa, Brazil, Turks, New Mexico, Iowa, New York, Washington Dc, Detroit, Georgia, Baltimore, Florida, South Carolina, Texas, Alabama, Virginia, St Louis, California, Las Vegas and other places. WHEW! Send the nations to worship together Jehovah!



Thank you so much for your prayers, they kept me strong the entire trip. Commissioner Johnson when I opened your email in Puerto Rico I was so blessed, thank you my friend.

In seminary, my Old Testament Professor asked the class a thought provoking question, "Is God really good all the time?" Dr Mafico after my experience in Puerto Rico and all the supernatural things God did for me, I would have to emphatically say, YES!!! A RESOUNDING YES! God is good all the time and all the time God is good!

Thank you Jesus over and over again for your faithfulness. You made ways out of no way. God you parted the red sea and brought a nation out of bondage into the marvelous light. Thank you for exceeding my expectations in Puerto Rico and providing an overflow in every area.

Commissioner Roberto, Thank you for opening up San Juan and giving Dancing Preachers International the keys to your city. Thank you to the Condo Plaza Hotel staff and general manager. The 4-diamond hotel was absolutely exquisite~ tailor made for Kings & Priests and your service was phenomenal. It was such a delight working with your entire staff.

Thank you to the Elder Tapika & Sukky my watchman on the wall and the entire intercessory team.









Special thanks to all the Keynote speakers and workshop facilitators: Apostle Dr. Elizabeth Hairston, Dr Ann Higgins, Prophetess Francine Riley and Rev Stephanie Butler. You all poured out so much to each delegate and left no one thirsty. You provided the intimate setting for the community of worshippers that provided healing and transformation.




To my executive team and the entire DPI staff, how can I ever repay you? We never would have made it with out you. You made this Dancing Preachers International a sweat-less victory! The delegates were tremendously blessed because of your graciousness, exemplary customer service and your Agape Love. This year I rested, while working! I had the opportunity everyday to greet the delegates and hear their testimonies, rest on the beach and partake in the awesome festivities and workshops that were provided. Valisha, Jovall, Yakeisha, Tosha, Danielle, Monica, Marita, Lakita, Carol, Jacquetta, Pam, and Rekesha-- thank you so very much for your labor of love.

I appreciate all the dance leaders in Puerto Rico that helped to make Dancing preachers International a great success!

Teachers - I continue to be humbled by God's love and mercy!!!! I sincerely appreciate all of you taking the time to teach others what our great God has bestowed upon you.

Special thanks to my haters, you became my motivators. You pushed me in the presence of God and there He reminded me of where my help and strength comes from (confrontation breeds revelation.) Whitney thank you for your song "I Didn't know my Own Strength." (It's the God in me! Girl, God brought us out!





Dancing Preachers International 2011!!!!!!!

Now I thought I told you that we won't stop! Dancing Preachers International 2011 in Jamaica!! Worship Leaders if you are ready to experience dance ministry (anointed) that destroys yolks, I will see you in Jamaica. Jamaica when the dance ministers plant their feet on your soil, your Country will never be the same. Our feet will map out the Nations!!!!!!!!!





Official DPI Recap!

On the plane there were Dancing Preachers Delegates eager and in full expectation for what the Lord had in store. I arrived to a full day of meetings with the hotel, DPI staff and the government officials from San Juan. Once my work load was completed, I went off to the beach to enjoy the beautiful weather and the sound of the peaceful water. Before the conference began I would spend every morning on the beach alone with Daddy beckoning for the healing waters to come restore my soul.

Look At God!

I had three most memorable moments. First, We met on the beach every morning. Men and women walking the beach who were not conference attendees joined us for prayer and to give their lives to Christ. It was awesome to see fathers and sons return to the Father, gang members yield to Jesus and families asking for prayer. What a mighty God we serve. We had a baptismal service in Puerto Rico on the beach!



Second, was the street evangelism on Saturday night. It was crazy, we had free worship! Many of the Islanders could not speak English but they knew that they experienced the presence of the Lord. As a result many gave their and lives to Christ and received prayer.

Third, was watching this young lady dance from her wheel chair every night. She said this wheel chair can not stop my worship. My God, what is our excuse for not giving God all the glory?




Workshops were incredible: The Breaker Anointing & Deliverance

Governing the Winds

My Ministry or God's Ministry

Interpretive/Lyrical Choreography - Part I

So, You Think You Can Dance?

Worship Dance Choreography for Youth

Stir Up the Gifts - Utilizing Each Gift for the Body and Activate Them



Wednesday Dancing Preachers Welcome Reception: Opening night we held a welcome reception where the delegates had an opportunity to meet and greet one another. The evening service was filled with giving thanks. I spoke about tearing down traditionalism and old systems that were not needful and whom the Son sets free is free indeed. God has called us to be distributors of wealth and resources.

Thursday General Session: Elder Tapika gave a riveting word about governing the four winds through prayer. My God what a revelation!

We met on the beach every morning. Men and women walking the beach who were not conference attendees joined us for prayer and to give their lives to Christ. It was awesome to see fathers and sons return to the Father, gang members yield to Jesus and families asking for prayer. What a mighty God we serve. We had a baptismal service in Puerto Rico on the beach!

Thursday Evening General Session: Apostle Elizabeth Hairston was the anointed powerful speaker to lead us into the Holy of Holies. We had an impartation service and many of the dance ministers received a prophetic word.

Friday Morning General Session: Rev Stephanie Butler gave a Rhema word about "Strategic Takeover!" It was straight from the Throne of God. Rev. Stephanie I want to hear that sermon again. It was truly POWERFUL!

Friday Night General Session: Prophetess Riley's message spoke to our healing and God giving us back the keys! An awesome prophetic move took place and deliverance was the evidence.

Saturday Morning General Session: I spoke on the vision of the International Dance Commission (IDC) and dance ministry leaders and organizations working together to edify the body and equip the saints. Every person was encouraged to understand their gifts and to lay down fear, traditionalism, cultural divides, competition, jealousy and envy to attain a higher goal.

Saturday Evening General Session: Dancing Preachers "Taking Authority." This was the night many waited for. The street evangelism was incredible. We danced and marched from the Condado Plaza Resort to the Ocean View square. There we were greeted by Commissioner Robert and a wonderful cultural expression of Puerto Rican Folk dance. Afterwards we were presented with an awesome demonstration of historical dance. The DPI attendees demonstrated God's love thou

DANCING PREACHERS INTERNATIONAL PUERTO RICO TESTIMONIALS:

"What an AMAZING time! Just got back to Atlanta - and I can only say 2009 Dancing Preachers was awesome! How blessed we were to watch the move of God unfold before our very eyes, and just when we thought it couldn't get any better - each day, God simply blew our minds! The street evangelism/cross cultural sharing event was amazing! Watching people come to Christ is always a wonderful and beautiful thing! Congrats to you Sabrina! You will truly be a mother of nations! TH, Citadel of Hope COGIC

Dancing Preachers 2009 was Triple A: AWESOME, AMAZING, ANOINTED. Just arrived home early this morning. I am still flying high from seeing how God used the conference to bring people to Him. Sabrina, thanks for being obedient and allowing God to use you for His glorification. DS, Women of Worship Liturgical Dance Ministry
We are finally getting back into the swing of things here in Houston. We have been on such a high from the Dancing Preachers conference. We never imagined that we would experience God's glory the way we did in Puerto Rico. We didn't know what it was that God had in store for us when we got there, but He blew our mind with what was revealed to us. Sabrina..Thank you so much for your obedience! Your spirit is awesome! Can't wait to see you at the next conference! Devine Destiny

WHAT A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE, I AM FROM THE PUERTO RICO MINISTR, AND IT WAS SUCH A BLESSING AND WE ARE SO GRATEFUL OF THE GIFT THE LORD GAVE US DURING THE DAYS OF THE CONFERENCE. IT WAS NOT IN OUR PLANS TO BE PART OF SUCH AN EXPERIENCE BUT IT DEFINITELY WAS IN HIS PLANS FOR US. I THANK SABRINA FOR LETING HERSELF BE USED IN ORDER FOR US TO EXPERIENCE THIS TIME, THIS WAS SOMETHING NONE OF US HAS NEVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE AND DEFINITELY SOMETHING WE'D LOVE TO BE A PART OF AGAIN. SABRINA KEEP UP YOUR WORK, THERE ARE GREAT THINGS STILL TO COME FOR YOU. GOD BLESS FROM WS, MINISTERIO TU ARTE EN MI, DORADO PR

Sabrina, What an awesome amazing conference! I have been to Dancing Preachers for the last four years and this was the best one yet. I am so glad that you did not let numbers (or people) deter you. This years conference was so much more intimate. Everyone just kind of moved together with a spirit of oneness. There was a sweet presence throughout the workshops and sessions that I do not think had the opportunity to manifest in previous years all the glitz, glam, and drama gone! What a rested, restored time in the Lord! Blessings to you, your family, and the ministry that is yet to come! - DJG

I already knew Sabrina the dancer but at Dancing Preachers I met the PREACHER! WOW! 2011 I can't wait and what ever you need just ask. DG

Puerto Rico was an amazing experience for me...it was a homecoming of sorts (I am Puerto Rican) and I hadn't been back since the early 90's - but this homecoming was with real PURPOSE! Thank you Sabrina for gathering together such anointed teachers- I am so excited to move forward! I am truly humbled by God's Love and Mercy!!!! TH

Oh my word what an experience! Puerto Rico will never be the same, my life will never be the same. FSS

Dear Sabrina. Im home safely. Dancing Preachers, Puerto Rico was awesome. Changed my life completely. To see people saved thru the ministry of dance blew me away. My vision is back on track. I have been set free. The keynote speakers were God ordained and poured their lives into us so freely. The whole week was orchestrated by the Holy Spirit and you Sabrina were in tune with Him every step of the way. Please thank your staff for being truly available and lovely to all of us. Can you believe I nearly didnt make it. The devil is a liar. This was so needed and my life has been impacted to the point that I am now running with vision as I encountered mighty women of God who have gone before me and demonstrated how it should be done. Its about a relationship with God and a lifestyle of prayer, intercession and being in the word and I saw the fruit of that this week. Thank you Sabrina McKenzie for being obedient to the call.

Sabrina i had a wonderful time. Thank you for the opportunity to minister in praise and worship with my other sisters i look forward to the next conference and will be ready to lend a helping hand. May God bless and keep you. LSG

Thank you for being so down to earth and touchable. I came by myself and didn't know anyone. You came to me and hugged me like you knew me for years. It was real and not a plastic hug you get from people who are insincere. You made it easy to get know people and you allowed me most importantly to be myself. I had the best time here in Puerto Rico. (taco bell LOL (insider).. Thank you for allowing me to minister in dance and have to opportunity to share the gift God has given me. Thank you for not quiting because in pressing you helped pull me out of a pit called "run of the mill". I want to take back everything I learned. I will tell anyone this was the best conference I have ever been to in my whole LIFE!! PSE
