*daco senior projects

DaCo Seniors receive the opportunity to have their own choreography produced in our show, choosing from creating a group or solo piece. While utilizing their own creative voices and working independently, they receive mentorship and feedback throughout their choreographic process from WFA's Dance Department Head.

**wfa dance company (daco)

The mission of WFA Dance Company is to provide a safe, Godly environment of concentrated training and development for young artists while glorifying God in the process; with excellence and hard work.

​Our 
purpose is to provide a progressive, advanced track for dancers to train in multiple styles. Our goal is to create an opportunity for dancers to flourish in their giftings and passion, grow in their technique, form a community, learn more about God and give back to their community through ministry opportunities.

join us for church on sunday
9am &​10:55am 

The music we play creates an environment to connect your heart to God and others. We’ll sing new songs from churches around the world and centuries-old hymns. We make music to please God and to build others up. Colossians 3:16 says, “Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts.” For us, that’s what making music is all about. Our songs are a celebration of who God is and what He is doing in the Church.
