Ministry Needs

Since 2003, The River Dance Company has been investing in the lives of worshippers – young and mature – in order to make an impact in families, the community, and the world. Touching lives with the good news of Jesus Christ is the heart of RDC. Whether ministering to residents in local nursing homes, students in the classroom, or producing full-scale Ministry events for the local community, our message is never watered-down, and it’s always portrayed with excellence.




	Ministry, by definition, includes the idea of meeting the needs of others. A “need” implies a lack of something of necessity. In our work, that necessity is the Gospel of Christ - a vital requirement for living a life of purpose on this earth and of happiness in the life eternal.

	The costs of ministry - of meeting the needs of those who need the Gospel of Christ - are both tangible (such as operating costs of running an organization) and intangible (like the emotional investment in building relationships). Whether it’s a strategy of Satan to make ministry difficult or simple economics, faith-based non-profits have an especially arduous challenge to meet the bottom line. We are no exception.




	“This awesome ministry provides sound biblical teaching with terrific dance instruction for our daughter. She is learning to worship the Lord with dance.”


	Our organization is funded in part by tuitions our students pay for their training. Tuitions, however, do not completely cover the costs of the ministry. We depend on contributions from businesses and individuals who wish to partner in our efforts to spread the Gospel through the arts.




	Currently, we are seeking partners who can contribute $20 or more per month on an on-going basis. Whether made through a monthly, quarterly, or semi-annual gift or a one-time contribution, gifts upwards of $250 qualify for special benefits – our way of saying “Thank you for investing in the Kingdom with us.” We have several levels of partnership from which to choose:
