The Intrepid Ball: ♫Let 'Em Dance♫

Yes, this is dreadfully late, but - better late than never... Right?
Before the dancing begins, Daddy gives the etiquette speech. He reminds us of proper behavior and decorum in the ballroom. For the Intrepid Ball, he prepared a devotional informing us of the godly, self-sacrifice of the men of the Titanic. At the time, the sacrifice of these men was broadly acknowledged to be due to the influence of Christianity. For the Savior, Jesus Christ, died to self, purchasing a people for Himself - for all eternity. In our lives (even in the ballroom), we should demonstrate Christ-like behavior by dying to self for others.
After the etiquette speech, the dancing begins!
Twenty one dances in all.
It certainly makes for tired, but happy, feet.
And happy faces!
After the ball is over, we all talk about how we can't wait for the next one...
