Divine Heritage Choir
In the Summer of 2000, a group of friends who wanted to share their faith and testimony of the Savior through music, came together to form the Divine Heritage Choir. The Choir is currently based in Salt Lake City, Utah, with past members who span across the United States. The current members who are at different stages of their lives – some are students, some are graduates, some have regular jobs, some are married, some are prospective missionaries, and others are returned missionaries – reside across the Wasatch Front from as far north as Bountiful, Utah, to as far south as Provo, Utah.
In the About section of their Facebook page, the Choir states, “We represent a variety of cultures. Though our heritages may differ one from the other, we come together in celebration of our common Divine Heritage – that of being sons and daughters of a kind and loving Heavenly Father.” Their testimony is simple, “Our Brother Jesus Christ lives and He loves us enough to provide a way back to our Heavenly Father, as long as we are obedient and endure to the end.”
The Divine Heritage Choir has had the privilege of traveling to and bearing testimony for audiences in Missouri, New Mexico, Washington State, California, Nevada, Arizona, Hawaii, North Carolina, Texas, Colorado, Wyoming, and throughout Utah. Most of the songs that they perform have been written or arranged by members or close friends. They have said, “We love to sing about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, to bring a remembrance to all of His Atoning Sacrifice and of His Eternal Gospel.”
“For my soul delighteth in the song of the heart; yea, the song of the righteous is a prayer unto me, and it shall be answered with a blessing upon their heads” (Doctrine and Covenants 25:12).
