About this sermon

For more info or to help rebuild please visit https://irisglobal.org/nkele https://thesoundofusfoundation.com/ Written by Yurk Ralf Performed by Yurk Ralf and the Umessamessa Uniris Choir Inamona is one of five songs we recorded in the village of Mieze, Mozambique. Inside a church that was nearly destroyed by a cyclone in late 2024. With only crumbling walls remaining, the villagers rebuilt a simple structure from sticks, rope, and tarps so they could continue gathering to worship. What you’re hearing was captured live in that sacred space. This song is more than a melody, it’s a cry, a prayer, and a reflection of deep faith rising from the rubble. These songs and stories are shared through a united effort between The Sound of Us Foundation and Iris Global. The Sound of Us exists to amplify voices like these. Voices that carry beauty, resilience, and hope in overlooked areas of the world. As you listen, we invite you to receive this song as a gift and to become part of the story unfolding in Mieze. --- Inamona (Testimony) Apuiya Yesu Lord Jesus, Kimpela ohimia enamona nantanto I long to lift my testimony this very year; Oooh wira, nyuwo tithi Oh Father, hear my cry; Tinyuwo mumpuanela o thothopiwa for You alone are worthy of all worship.
