A Beautiful Beginning: Himbaza’s Soft-Launch!

Saturday, July 12th, something special unfolded, our soft launch of the Himbaza Initiative!
The room was filled with laughter, worship, prayer, and praise as children, parents, pastors, board members, and community partners came together to celebrate the start of this joyful new chapter.
Himbaza (which means “Praise” in Kinyarwanda) is a program designed to empower East African refugee churches and families by creating inclusive worship spaces where children are seen, heard, and spiritually engaged.
The soft-launch was more than an event, it was a glimpse into the future we’re building together: one where all generations can worship side by side in love and unity.
We’re so grateful for everyone who joined us and to those walking with us on this journey. With your prayers and support, the best is yet to come.
