WIST (Worship In Spirit & Truth) Ministries International was started in September 2002 as a Christian dance school. WIST was inspired from the Bible in the book of John 4:24, which says: “God is a Spirit, and they that Worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth”.

Today WIST is comprised of a dance school with over twenty-five (25) students ranging in age from four to over 35; a dance company of fifteen (15) members, and several partnering singers, poets, actors and musicians.

The group is comprised of persons for various Christian denominations and locations across the East Coast Demerara, East Bank Demerara, West Bank Demerara, Soesdyke Highway, and West Coast Demerara.

On November 28, 2014, WIST will be hosting a Christmas production at the National Cultural Centre at 8pm, under the theme “Celebrating the King”. This event will be held in keeping with the group’s mission to use the performing arts to share the gospel. It will also be a conduit to give encouragement and raise funds for its charitable projects. There would be dance, drama, poetry, songs, steel pan music and lots more.

WIST has promised that this event would be a breath taking night of quality performances and ministry. Some of the churches involved are Grove Full Gospel, Kuru Kururu Assembly of God, Community Life – Buxton, Elim Pentecostal at Albert Street, Pearl Assembly of God, Winners Cathedral, and many more.

Tickets are available at the National Cultural Centre, Roxie’s Fashion on Church Street, any other company members, or at the dance school at the Open Bible Church at the corner of Lamaha and Oronoque Streets in Queenstown, Georgetown. Tickets cost only $1000 and $1500.
In December 2013 WIST hosted its first Christmas production with the theme “Mary. Did you know?, from this event the group made a meaningful contribution to the Ruimveldt Children’s Home and Care Center, an orphanage in Ruimveldt. During the year 2014 the group launched a street feeding programme through which more than 70 persons were fed.

WIST truly believes that it is more blessed to give than to receive. In uniting on charity ventures, persons around our country can benefit in a significant way. Hence, from this event on Nov 28, 2014, “Celebrating the King” WIST is looking forward to making a meaningful donation to Carib Kids International. This is a charity project that helps over one dozen families where grandparents are tasked as the sole bread winners and caregivers for their otherwise orphaned grandchildren.

It would be a joyful experience to be able to bless these families at Christmas, the season of love, sharing and giving.

WIST will also be taking this production to Canaan Full Gospel Church at Port Mourant Corentyne, Berbice on December 13, 2014.

WIST is known for its passion for service to God, dedication towards charity and high quality of output.
