How do you know who you should pick to be in your ministry?

This question was posted in gospelmime.ning.com's forum by R.J. Mime

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.

Triple "G" Mime (God's Given Gift)


Triple "G" Mime—God's Given Gift—was birthed out of South Bend, Indiana in 2005 under the leadership of Monté McGill, Sr. and Greater Mt. Calvary MB Church. Originally, the group consisted of four members. Today, Triple "G" Mime contains three of the original members. In January 2006, Triple "G" Mime merged with another mime ministry—known as Sons of David—which began at New Life Fellowship Ministry, located in South Bend, Indiana. The fusion of these two groups sparked the beginning of All Eyes Up Ministries which was inspired by visionary David McKissic. As the group went through membership changes, the leadership also changed. Currently, Triple "G" Mime is under the leadership of David McKissic and the management of All Eyes Up Ministries. The management group, All Eyes Up Ministries, is covered by Apostle and Prophetess Givens of New Horizons Outreach Ministries, located in South Bend, Indiana. Today, Triple "G" Mime has a total of seven members. Triple "G" Mime has found themselves amongst that of Gospel Greats including K & K Mime, Pastor Bobby Jones, Rance Allen, Shirley Murdock, YPJ & FVC, Ron Bishop and Judah First Chorale, and Youthful Praise. Triple "G" Mime has shared the stage with other eminent members of the Body of Christ. This wide range of people does not stop at great Gospel music, but goes on to encompass Holy Hip Hop artists such as those of Cross Movement Records which includes Da T.R.U.T.H., Tedashii, Flame, Everyday Process, and more! Since the formation of the ministry, Triple "G" Mime has grown and become increasingly sensitive to the voice of God. Because their spirits are receptive to God's direction, they have found new and innovative ways to communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all ages through mime. This group of young ministers do not simply mime, but have a passion to deliver the Word of God. Each member of Triple "G" Mime is a spiritual warrior declaring a state of emergency on the lives of both believers and non-believers. They boldly declare war on the Kingdom of Darkness and intercede for those of their generation. Triple "G" Mime firmly believes in 1 Timothy 4:12, "Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity (NIV)." Triple "G" Mime is a group of dimensional thinkers and worshippers with a desire to tap into another level of anointing and excellence!

The Ministry of R.A.P. Mime

Radical Anointed Praise Mime is a ministry within True Bethel Baptist Church in Buffalo, NY under the teaching of Darius G. Pridgen. R.A.P consists of several members but currently includes Minister Shareef Ali II and Raynardo Shedrick Jr. The group has found inspiration and in-direct guidance from the founders of Gospel Mime "K&K Mime." R.A.P has traveled and ministered throughout Buffalo, Rochester, Toronto, Baltimore, NewYork and Niagara Falls. No church is too small nor too big for R.A.P. Because of the teachings of Pastor Pridgen, R.A.P has never been satisfied with doing the mininium but, as the TBBC 2006 motto says, R.A.P wants to "Do The Impossible." With this motto in mind R.A.P decided to conduct a tour, entitled "TOUR DE MIME," of their ministry to any church/organization that will have them. September 17, in Baltimore, Maryland at Empowerment Temple with Pastor Jamal Bryant, was the the first stop of their tour. God is truly taking this ministry to new heights. If you would like R.A.P to minister to you call TBBC at 716-895-8222

Makeup for Mimes

A question was posted in gospelmime.ning.com's forum about the right type of makeup for mimes.

According to Barbi Harris of Jehovah-Jireh Mime:  KRYOLON,BEN-NYE,MEHRON ARE THE 3 BEST PROFESSIONAL QUALITY GREASE BASED FACE PAINTS USED BY MIMES AND CLOWNS AND ALL ARE SIMILAR IN QUALITY...YOU CAN ORDER ONLINE IF THERE`ARE NO STORES NEAR YOU.....EACH MAY HAVE A SLIGHTY DIFFERENT FEEL ON YOUR FACE DEPENDING ON YOUR PREFERENCE,WEATHER (REALLY HUMID, DRY ECT) THE BEN-NYE IS A BIT THICKER IN TEXTURE AND KRYOLAN IS VERY SMOOTH AND IS GREAT AS WELL...YOU SHOULD BUY 1 SMALL ONE OF EACH TO TRY THEM OUT SO YOU FIND THE BEST THAT WORKS WITH YOUR FACE AND SKIN. ENJOY!

My mime partner and I use Mehron Clown White Makeup.  We have never used a base to make it easier to take off.  However after watching videos and looking at different discussions on gospelmime.ning.com we may change our ways.  Whatever you do please do not use makeup from places like Party City, Target, or Wal-Mart meant for halloween.  When we first started out we made that mistake and found that the makeup will crack on you, leave you looking like a ghoul, and it makes you feel like you need the relief of a ton of lotion on your face.  Below you will find a video on how Chosen Mime Ministry applies makeup.
