And if they&#8217;ve never heard of them, then it&#8217;s time to check out this teen dance group. They&#8217;re high on energy and talent, and also very strong in their faith.<br \/>\nPureNRG just returned from their first international tour in Norway and did four performances for the Soul Children&#8217;s Festival, which is an educational event that drew 1500 school age children from Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Ireland. The students were taught new music under several different conductors. PureNRG provided entertainment for the festival, with three performances at the Konserthuset, which is similar to a performing arts center, and one at Jernbanetorget, which is an outdoor mall. While in the country, pureNRG also got to do some sightseeing, touring the Royal Palace and taking a beautiful boat ride in the city of Oslo.<br \/>\nThe group has a busy schedule ahead of them that includes the Creation West Festival in July, a second appearance in August at the American Airlines Center in Dallas at a Ringling Brother&#8217;s Circus event and a missions trip to Mexico in October.<br \/>\nFor updates on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.purenrgonline.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">pureNRG visit their website<\/a>, where fans can also register for a free clubNRG user account.
