About
Paneh is the Hebrew word for "face" or "in His Presence". Exodus 33:11a says And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend…That is the type of relationship we seek after! We are dance & mime ministry that serves God’s people through ministry in dance at church services, conferences, weddings, and other special events. We also desire to assist other dance ministries through workshops, seminars and information sharing.
Our vision is to minister in dance in such a way as to bring others INTO THE PRESENCE of God. We exist to win souls for the kingdom and bring others into a deeper relationship with God. We desire to present our body as a living sacrifice – ministering in dance to others as the Lord ministers to us. To bring together those from all over the world who desire to glorify the Lord through the ministry of dance – using the Internet as our medium of networking and information sharing. To encourage, exhort, and educate dance ministers as the Lord allows us.
Our mission is to fulfill the purposes of any given ministry as outlined in scripture:
Present the gospel (Evangelism)
Accommodate the needs of others (Ministry)
Network with other dance ministers (Fellowship)
Equip others to minister in dance (Discipleship)
Honor God with our lives (Worship)
It is our prayer that God gets the glory out of our lives and that this website will be a blessing to all who view it. We are located in southwest IL (between Fairview Heights and O’Fallon) about 15 miles east of St. Louis.
