Send Us God, a choir from the Kigali English Church of the Seventh-day Adventist, stirred emotions of the attendees during the 'Melodies of Our Faith' concert held at the Kigali Conference and Exhibition Village.
The concert began promptly at 5 pm with Elyse Mpano, who opened with three songs: "Data Wa Twese,” "Ese Urankunda,” and others. After Mpano's performance, the MC introduced Send Us God choir to the stage. As soon as the title of their first song appeared on the screen, the audience began to sing along. It was evident that these songs were well-known to everyone in the congregation.
The venue was nearly full, and although there was no dancing during the concert, the harmony of the choir's voices touched the hearts of the audience. Send Us God performed a mix of acapella and non-acapella music to cater to all preferences. Their presentation was bilingual, in both English and Kinyarwanda.
The first part of the concert featured 14 songs, while the last part included 16 songs. In the second part of the concert, Send Us God paid tribute to the late Pastor Esphron Nyamaswa, with the song "Tears Are a Language God Understands."
The concert was brought to a close by Pastor Seth Mbanzabigwi at 9:40 pm, as he expressed his appreciation for the attendees and conveyed his desire not to miss the choir in Heaven.
