Everyone is welcome to join us!

Whereas the Irish have had a profound impact on life at Seton Hall, on the American experience, on the Catholic Church, and on Western Civilization as a whole, it is vital to examine the traditions and beliefs of this people.

Soldiers for Christ

Posted on July 29, 2011 by Tom McGee

Soldiers 4 Christ Step Team Ministry is not the traditional step, or drill team, but a ministry that uses the art form of step to spread the Word of God, the Bible. As our scripture states, Jesus Christ is our commanding officer, and with Him, we fight the continuous spiritual war against the enemy, Satan, enduring hardship, and ministering the gospel. Although our ministry is through step, we are also dedicated to reaching out to our peers through community service. We are open, and do not reject anyone, yet expect our beliefs and life practices to be respected by all. We do not step for the entertainment of our audience, but by the power of the Holy Spirit, we spread the Gospel to all who will listen, encouraging the downhearted and reaching out to the lost. In all that we do, we keep God first, and we always have fun.
