How do you know who you should pick to be in your ministry?
New Xpression Mime: The bible says, how can two walk together if they not agree. Your partner(s) in ministry must not only align up with your Spirit, but coroporately you must be aligned with the word and Spirit of God so that Ministry can go forth corporately and effectively under the Anointing through the Ministry.
My Group Story
When I began miming at the age of 13, I belonged to a group ("Represent") of about seven which included my sister. We were new to the idea of ministering through mime and so we ran into a few issues. My sister and I became a duo when Represent dissolved. We had an awesome run as a team but life happens and we dissolved our group (Temporarily I Pray). When I changed churches (True Bethel Baptist Church) I joined the mime ministry there and later helped reorganized the ministry and we called the group:
Radical Anointed Praise Mime (R.A.P. Mime)
R.A.P. had an awesome run as well. However, because the group was large (7-10 members), members grew up, went to college, had children, and just lost interest, we disbanded.
Thankfully Pastor Ali and myself have continued the legacy of R.A.P. We have found a bond and connection because we don't have to deal with different personalities and spirits. (Not to mention our birthdays are a day apart 12/30-12/31)
If you solo mime, duo mime, or group mime make sure all spirits are aligned.
