UPC Upper Body Synchronized Dancing
 
I am surprised there have been no threads here about the UPC National Youth Congress that just concluded in Louisville, KY.

Here is a video clip of a group called "Elevation" who does the synchronized signing to music that has become popular the last few years in some areas of the UPC.

I call it "upper body synchronized dancing" because that is what it is . LOL. I like it and have been blessed by it in person.

A few years ago I was at a UPC church in Texas and saw a group from the Tupelo Chilren's mansion do an incredible job to a very moving song. I remember just wishing that the UPC allowed lower body dancing as well as upper because that would have made it even better.

One side note from the group in this video clip from the National Youth Congress is that it appears the giant Pentecostal beehive hairdo is making a comeback! I remember as a young man at the 1975 GC thinking I could have stayed home and just bought the tapes because there was no image magnification back then in the arena and every woman in front of me hat hairdo's 2+ feet high! LOL

CC1, wasn't '75 GC in Ft. Worth and the departure conference for Bro. Hamby and Bro. Phillips? I was at that conference. Remember it well. Just didn't remember the date for sure.

And by the way, I thought I saw some "lower body synchronized dancing" in that video. Not being critical of the young folks, just passing on an opinion! It was great. Feel sorry for the two young men, tho. I believe there were two.

Meh. It has a hint of actual sign language in it so it gets a pass. I thought this stuff was dumb the first time I saw it and i still think it is today. Turn off the loud music and you just have women waving their arms around pretending to minister to deaf people.

Entertainment does not belong in the church.

We had Holy Hands in our church. I always enjoyed the worship of God those youth displayed.
