The Life Ballet Traveling Ministry Trips
Through film, music and live productions, we support children's rights and healthcare from conception to birth and beyond, as well as healing and forgiveness in the wake of loss and "choice". Our largest project to date has been creating a film adaptation of our live production The Life Ballet called "Arise Sweet Sarah". The film was released September 12, 2015 in Rochester, NY. "Arise Sweet Sarah" also shares a message of the value and importance of all human life, as well as a message of healing, forgiveness and grace in the midst of unthinkable grief in the wake of lost motherhood. It is based on the testimony of Sandy Arena and the uncountable experiences of others who have suffered. The story is told through a powerful combination of narration, symbolism, acting, original score and a combination of modern dance and ballet. Filming took place in Rochester, NY during the summer of 2014 in conjunction with Verb Records. Verb Records was recently named the Record Label of the Year by the IMEA awards.
The Life Ballet was nominated as an official submission at LifeFest 2011 in Sacramento, California. It was also a feature film in Maranatha Christian Film Festival in Rochester, NY. Although The Life Ballet will no longer be touring due to the release of its film, the live show enjoyed many previous experiences touring nationally performing in New York, Pennsylvania, Washington DC, Nashville Tennessee, California, Texas, Indiana, Colorado and Lethbridge, Canada. Although we were not credited, The Life Ballet and Sandy Arena were called upon to cast, choreograph, costume and serve as technical advisors to the video "This Time" by John Elefante. The dancers you see in that video and the choreography that was created, and most of the actors are from our team. The concept of dancing to share a story of abortion was inspired from our show. We have also appeared on or have been interviewed by The Miracle Channel Christian of Lethbridge, Canada, TCT.TV, Day Gardner's Day Report, Ethel Chadwick's Bagels and Blessings, Jill Stanek, Breaking Christian News, Tom Jackson Showcase, Monday Minute, Catholic Courier Post, Kim Ketola's Cradle My Heart.
