The Daraja Choir had a unique “first” on Friday. Before Friday night’s concert in South Carolina, Daraja was part of a marriage proposal! One of their fall interns, Kim, was caught completely off-guard when her boyfriend showed up and proposed to her during sound check! Mitchell, Kim’s boyfriend, asked the choir to be part of the proposal by singing “their song” (Colbie Caillat’s “Falling For You”) during the engagement. So much fun!
Congrats Kim and Mitchell!

“Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.”
This verse beautifully captures the vision before us—to broaden our impact, deepen our roots, and extend God’s Kingdom in new and meaningful ways.
In Guatemala, Christmas is deeply rooted in the Christian faith, with the birth of the Baby Jesus at the heart of the celebration.

The festivities begin with the setting up of the nacimiento.
