Encountered Heart has enriched our worship services for special occasions through their thoughtful and tasteful interpretive movement. Their group has been so helpful and accommodating in the planning process as we consider the needs of our particular community.
— Evie Telfer, Messiah Lifeways
Every song choice and every show expresses how we, as humans, struggle with and learn to connect to the love of Christ. I am inspired every time by every number performed.
