Beloved Dancers,


There are many opportunities in April to dance and sing together.  Let me draw your attention to the new partnership with United Theological Seminary (first dance is tonight at 5p!), April retreats in northern MN, southeast corner of MN, Iowa, and Madison. A smorgasbord of good things.

Eat, Pray, and Dance together!

Toward the One,
Conie
Conie, your sometimes unfaithful servant
