Kristina Collins, Ministry Director & Dance Instructor
There's an old saying about leaders...and how a good leader desires for their students to walk on top of their ceiling. That's really my heart's desire...to see others catch the vision and run with it. I love what I do. I love sharing the passion God has placed inside me and imparting every good thing that He's given me to others that I have the privilege of meeting.
Malonie Ayers, Outreach Coordinator & Dance Instructor: 3-4 yrs. old
I was drawn to this ministry because of the passion it holds for the arts and the freedom given to those who take part in it, as we open our hearts and let Him take over. Over the years, I have been able to participate in several AHF training workshops, travel with our dance team to various churches and worship conferences, and instruct dance classes held here in Lakeland, FL. I'm excited about teaching children the love of dance and how to use their gifts as worship unto the Lord.
Julie Noderer, Dance Instructor: 5-7 yrs. old
I started dancing at the age of five, ballet is my background training, but I love all kinds of dance. I was with AHF when it first began. I pray that my passion for dancing can be imparted to all those I have the privileged teaching, and that they learn how to hear and worship God through dance.
Jenna Johnston, Dance Instructor: 8-10 yrs. old
I have been trained in all areas of dance since the age of four. I have taught dance to students of all ages in both the secular and Christian setting. I am excited about sharing the gift of dance as well as my love for the Lord with my students. I am currently pursing an Elementary Education degree at Southeastern University.
Jessica Porter, Dance Instructor: Teens
Ministry has been my passion since I was 15 and met Jesus; but Dance has always been my heart. I enjoy dancing as a form of worship. I moved to Lakeland to finish my education at Southeastern University and looked for an opportunity to enrich my passion for dance again. Shortly after graduating Southeastern University, I found AHF, where I was blessed to teach dance. Dancing and teaching others to dance is something I love to do because of the freedom that we experience through dance.
Hannah Collins, Dance Instructor: Hip Hop/Modern
I have been dancing with AHF from the start. I originally started off as a student and have since moved on to teach. I have traveled with AHF ministries globally and locally. I teach dance because I get to see people come alive when they dance. I aspire to inspire dancers of all ages to dance for the Lord… “In Him I live, I move, and I have my being.”
Jacel Jones, Art Instructor
I love creativity, I have a B.A. in Art Graphic Design. I’m an avid artist and have worked as an art specialist teaching art. Working with children is important to me and I’ve worked in children’s ministry for over nine years. I find simple things amusing, I believe that we are made in the image of a creative God, hence everyone is creative and to be co-creators with Him. I see art as an avenue to connect and reach people.
Katie Noderer, Creative Writing Instructor
I have always enjoyed creating word pictures. In 2007-2008 I was blessed to co-write and direct a play called “Freedom’s Journey”. Since then my passion for creative writing has exploded. As beings made in the image of God, creativity has been formed in us from birth. Each of us is a part of a beautiful story. Our creative expression is an outflow of our life experiences and what is in our heart. My goal is to inspire you to pour out those heartfelt expressions onto paper, like an artist paints a picture, but with words. I am excited about being apart of the AHF Creative Arts Team, waiting with anticipation to see what God is going to do in and through each one of us!
Clayton Gilbert, All Things Behind The Scenes & Intern
I enjoy serving the Lord wherever He places me and one such place has been At His Feet Ministries. I immediately wanted to help out with the ministry as soon as I was introduced to it, it was exactly what God placed on my heart to do, so I took it and ran with it. I hope to continue to be with this ministry and learn as much as I can on the journey that God has for me with AHF.
