Very beautiful! Who knew you could show so much expression with a pair of sticks. I applaud these young people! 👏

This is my church youth group... one of our students in this presentation just had surgery for a brain tumor. If you are watching this, please say a prayer that they removed it all and that he will be completely restored to health! Thank you!!

May God Almighty send His word to heal, to restore them to health and heal every wound. In Jesus Name. Our God is able!

Beautiful job, guys!!!

@lesalashbrook the sticks are 1/4” hardwood dowels that we purchased from a home project store (Home Depot, Lowes). They sell softwood dowels as well but they snap too easily. You will need to lay them on the floor and make sure they are straight and will easily roll.

I love drama. Very common with beginner signers. Turn off the 'hearing and the voices' and all facial expressions leave too. We depend so much on our hearing to regulate our emotions expressed with our voices that we don't realize that we are being very expressive in our facial expressions and body language at the same time. Other than that, very good indeed.

using Stick in dancing means what? may I know pls. thank you

Hi, Anna. The sticks become an extension of the arms making gestures “bigger”. They also become props to create visuals (crosses, mangers, babies, etc.) Stick ministry isn’t dance per se. it’s more about dramatic presentation. While there is an element of dance/choreographed motion in stick dramas, we are visually telling the story in the song. I hope that helps!
