You can Still see Daraja!

Friends, as many of you may know, the Daraja Children’s Choir of Africa had to cancel its 2011 tours when our request for Visas was denied by the U.S. Embassy in Kenya.

However, you still have an opportunity to worship with the 2011 Choir and to see Daraja Alumni!

This Christmas (December 26-January 4), you and your family can travel to Kenya with Daraja staff to attend our second annual Daraja Alumni Retreat.

Our goal is to spend 3-4 days at a retreat center with former Daraja kids, investing truth, encouragement, and leadership skills in them during their school break. You will spend your trip loving on the kids, debriefing topics through small groups, encouraging them in their daily challenges through family groups, playing games, doing crafts, and perhaps even leading sessions on practical truth and biblical encouragement! We will also be together to celebrate New Years Eve together! What a better way to ring in the new year!

Once this retreat is over, our hope is to take the older Daraja alumni to Ngaamba to worship with the 2011 Daraja children who were not able to travel to see you. Not only will this be a great chance to encourage the 2011 choir, but also to invest important ministry skills into the Daraja alumni.

We truly hope you can join us! The trip will be December 26 – January 4,2012.

Due to the interest in this trip, we have delayed our normal deadlines. The trip will cost a maximum of $3500. If we can get 20 more people on the trip, we will be able to drop the price.

For now, applications are requested with a deposit as soon as possible. The deadline for applications is now November 14th.
50% of the funding is due on Monday, November 14.
100% of the funding is due by Monday, November 28.

Learnings From Kiu, Kenya

Our partnership with Kiu community started way back in 2009 making it one of the first communities to partner with the 410 Bridge since its inception in Kenya in 2006. 

At the 410 Bridge, we work through the community leaders who ensure continuity of the community’s development even after graduation. During our partnership journey, we walk alongside indigenous community leaders and church leaders as they mobilize and unify the community to participate in their own development – shifting their perspectives and owning the solutions.

Serving with Joy: A Week in Mutirithia, Kenya

If you haven’t yet had the opportunity to go on a mission trip to Kenya, allow me to do my best to try to put into words what an incredible life-changing experience that you really need to do at least once in your life. 

I was recently blessed to travel to Mutirithia, Kenya with an amazing group of 20 other Christian men to serve the families in that community over the course of a week. 

We prepared for weeks to make sure everyone understood the primary objective of the trip, which was to build upon relationships already formed in the community and to spread the Word to as many people as we could. 

Allow me to unfold a day-by-day glimpse of what we experienced:
