I participated in liturgical dance as part of this year’s Call to Action Conference, fun stuff. Albuquerque was amazing, it was a great time to be there.

St. Thomas of Canterbury Episcopal Church has some videos of the dancing posted on their website (Update: videos no longer on their website, but check out their Arts page). I am usually in the back row — it was really fun and moving, but I was the only one with no experience! I could still dance at an elevation over 5000 feet, even after my surgery 10 months ago for a tumor on my IT band. It was a dance celebration of my health.
