Our Staff Dance Challenge

Maybe you saw the TikTok video that went viral last Friday. While in the office, an employee, recorded his co-worker dancing the the C+C Music Factory hit, Everybody Dance Now (Gonna Make You Sweat). The video already has a huge following of spin-offs, parodies, and  copy-cats spreading the viral effect.

I thought it would be fun to have our student leadership team jump on the bandwagon and create our own version of the video as something fun for our students to see. But then I thought, why limit it to just our student leadership team? Why not get the pastors involved? Participation was optional, and I was thrilled to get a handful of videos from some of our team.

So here it is, Our own spin on the "Everybody Dance Now" video. Enjoy!

This was so much fun! And, I am so grateful for the willingness of our pastors and my student leadership team to show off their dance moves! I work with an amazing group of folks who love Jesus, love our students, and love to have fun!
