When the bible speaks about 'One Body, Many Parts' in second book written to the Corinthians by Paul I couldn't have used a better reference to what flashmob has turned out to be. Meet Josheldon Govender, his a final year student who has been involved with ministry on campus for over a year now. Nearly 7 months ago I heard this radical idea he had to have a massive flashmob presentation on campus! I imagined you need like 60 people for that and I was clueless to where we would get that group but he really was adamanant to get it and see it through. What it would form out to be would be a creative evangelistic outreach on campus during one of the forum or prayer periods. Over the past months I have come to hear and work with Josh and he is amazingly gifted in dance. Undoubtedly, believing this gift is from God he uses it in his ministry at his church were he co-leads youth ministry but what I seem to get from him is his so amazingly inlove with hip hop dance specifically that he wants to see some of the kids he works with in his church use it to artistically express themselves.
After putting together the moves and the beat for the presentation the hassle was now getting students to work with and this was a huge hassle for us because students on our campus weren't enough to make this a flashmob but he was quite determined. Prayer meetings were very encouraging and I was so stoked that when the day did come for the flashmob there was so many students that pitched up and I was like in my head, where on earth do all these peeps come from. Once again knowing that Christ's body is a unit made out of many parts we really wanted to have some student Christian organizations actively involved in this production and surely enough His People Westville came through with students and tons of resources to make this evangelistic outreach what it came out to be.
