and featured guest Wil Bozeman

For over 30 years, Wil has ministered in a variety of settings as a pastor, teacher and musician. Throughout his ministry he has also worked with the homeless, at-risk youth and has translated truth into the rhythms and colors of story telling. As a singer/songwriter and accomplished musician, his specialty is Parable of the Dancer , a beautifully narrated song-story of timeless worth. In addition to gifted creativity, his ability to transcribe scripture into life changing messages captivates the listener, while gently presenting the Lord's healing balm.

There will be several mini-messages about the A Bride Made Ready, delivered by Wil Bozeman followed by a reflection question and then an artistic ministry activation, given by Lynn Hayden, to illustrate the message.
Here are only a few of the many wonderful testimonies from previous retreats:
This was my very first dance Conference. I truly was blessed beyond measure! Next year I hope My entire dance Ministry can attend. Latonya - Asheville, NC
Awesome time with the Lord, I truly am not leaving here the same! A true blessing! Rebecca - Carolina Beach, NC
This was our first dance retreat and we were totally amazed at how God ministered personally to each of us. The Holy Spirit used Lynn and Will to minister the Word of God through teaching and dance so powerfully. This retreat truly set the tone and the atmosphere for his presence. We can’t wait to come back next summer! Raise Him Up - NYC, NY
Lynn, Thanks to you and Wil for the excellent worship retreat in NC. I am still trying to process the many things that I experienced. So much worship, teaching, ministry, deliverance! People keep asking me how it was and I can't even put it into words! And that music! I ordered some for myself and also to give to the 2 different "healing rooms" we have here in town. I can't wait to hear it again and concentrate on the words that I missed at the retreat (while I was crying or ministering or being ministered to!) I don't think I can wait until the next retreat--I might have to come to the conference in St. Louis next spring--it would be the closest one to me. Thanks so much for showing the incredible power of movement in worship and ministry. Oh--if our pastors could see--if everyone could see! Perhaps we should have our conferences in the town square!!!! Bless you both! Beth
This was my first time attending a Dancing for Him Retreat. What a beautiful experience! It provided me with a great introduction to what God is calling me to do in my community. Lynn is so gifted and anointed in praise and worship dancing. Wil was a great choice to provide us insight into the scriptures. What a blessing this weekend this has been! Becky-Virginia Beach, VA
This conference was life changing! I was able to put into action what was imparted to me. I will never be the same! Megan- Richlands, NC
We had such a wonderful time at the Retreat this past weekend. We went home basking in the Lord's presence. The teaching times with Will were amazing. We have already been talking about how we will be gleaning from the notes we made and reflecting on the questions he posed. There is a lot to ponder and meditate upon. Your instruction was, as always, wonderful. We enjoyed every activation and the ministry you bestowed upon us. We believe this is something we will carry with us for a long time. Thank you and Will for being willing vessels of the Lord's anointing. We appreciate you both and pray God's blessings on you. God Bless, Shelia
Come expecting God to do things. The anointing and presence of God was awesome. Just watching Lynn minister helps me as a leader. Her sensitivity to the Lord is amazing. Elaine, Greensboro, NC
Come, receive from God through prophetic dance ministry, get renewed, refreshed and full of new ideas! Come and let God transform your life!

LODGING
We are blessed to have two of the most lovely buildings reserved in the most beautiful setting in the NC mountains. The best news is that the lodging cost is unbelievably inexpensive at only $30/person/night!!! Laurel Lodge has two double beds per room. So the room is $60/night with up to two people in there. So, if two people share the $60/night room that is only $30/person/night. Additional people are only $10/night up to 4 people in a room. You all can divide it up how ever you like. So, if you have 4 people in your room, that is only $20/person/night, which works out to be less expensive than two years ago with a much nicer accommodation. It is also much more convenient to the meeting space.
It will be first come first served at Laurel Lodge. After that, the overflow of people will be distributed in another beautiful location, only a short walk to the meeting hall. The overflow building is situated on top of a flowing stream that serenades you while falling asleep. Laurel Lodge is where the retreat meetings will be held and is across the street from the dining hall.
The people there at the retreat center are very helpful and will help you make appropriate reservations for you and your group. The woman’s name, in charge of that is Cheryl.
Reservations at the lodge are separate from your registration with Dancing For Him Ministries. Be sure to register with DFH first and then call High Pastures to reserve your room and board.
RESERVATIONS
Call the retreat center today to make your room and meal package reservations at: 828-682-3138 (after registering here, preferably on line, with Dancing For Him).
Say that you are with the Dancing For Him Retreat July 20-22, 2011. We told them that people will probably want to come in/arrive on Thursday evening July 21st and leave Sunday July 24th after 12 noon.
Then High Pastures will mail or e-mail you a reservation form and you will send them in a check for a non-refundable deposit of 20% down. Upon arrival, you may pay the balance by cash or check. You must call them first, though (after registering with Dancing For Him).
This is an intimate setting and space is limited. There is only room for 50 people. So be sure to register early!!
AIRPORT
Ashville, NC (about 37 minutes away)
Johnson City, TN (also about 37 minutes away)
WHAT TO WEAR/BRING
Comfortable, casual, modest clothing for active movement. Dance shoes will be good for the actual dance classes and choreography. However, it would be advisable to wear or bring comfortable tennis shoes for long days on our feet.
Water bottle with tight fitting lid (no other food or beverage allowed in the hall). The tap and fountain water are really quite good.
Flags and other worship instruments. There is room to move and express!
You may want a light jacket or sweatshirt for the restaurants and/or air conditioning. Plus it gets cool up in the mountains, even in July! In the very early morning, it actually got down to around 50 degrees. The day time high was around 70-75.
If you want to go hiking, you may want to bring appropriate shoes for a steep climb as well as clothes for outdoors. We may possibly climb to the top of one trail for a time of refection. So, you'll want good gripping shoes and comfortable clothes that you don't care if they get a little dirty (plus a sweat shirt or sweater).
The DFH product table will be there with all the products at lower-then-bookstore conference prices. There will be a 'surprise discount' on a one of everything product package. Also, some of the music that will be used during the workshop may be available for sale. So you'll want to bring MC, Visa, AM Express, Discover cards, cash or checks with you to the hall. You'll want to take advantage of the opportunity.
Absolutely NO video taping allowed during the conference. Most of the teaching and dances will be available at the product table. However, photograph taking is strongly encouraged.
SEVERAL WAYS TO REGISTER
The amount of registrations, offerings, support, etc., is absolutely non-refundable. If for some unforeseen reason you will be unable to attend, your tax-deductible donation will be considered a love gift to further the work of God through Dancing For Him Ministries. Thank-you. NO one-day rates available. We encourage you to attend the entire conference or as much of the conference as you are able.
