In 2007, Lanny Donoho (founder of BigStuf and The 410 Bridge) had the idea to bring a children’s choir from Africa to the United States as a partner ministry of The 410 Bridge. At that time, The 410 Bridge had already been serving several communities in Kenya for 2 years. The 410 Bridge was sending committed Americans to Kenya to serve and build long-term relationships with partner communities. Now, it was time to bridge Africa to the U.S.!
The first Daraja Children’s Choir arrived in late July 2007. The choir sang at BigStuf Camp and traveled the southeast worshipping God and igniting a passion for action in the lives of so many people. From July 2007 to December 2010 almost 70 children from Kenya in 4 different choirs have traveled with Daraja. Their ministry has deeply touched the hearts of churches and individuals all across the U.S. In 2011 and 2012 the choir did not travel due to uncontrollable immigration issues with the U.S. Embassy in Kenya. In late 2012, The 410 bridge partnered with a new community in Kaihura, Uganda to help bring Christ-centered, community-initiated development to their village. A new chapter of the story began in 2013 when Daraja had its first Ugandan choir travel to the U.S. Lives on both sides of the bridge, Africa & U.S., were changed through the authentic, joyful voices of the children of Kaihura.
As The 410 Bridge ministry grows, we are excited to see more nations join in one voice of worship with churches across the U.S. We believe, as we connect and serve each other cross-culturally, that God is glorified and the body of Christ is made stronger. We can’t wait to see what God is going to do next!
