म बस्छु Marrakesh, a city alive with color and sound — where the call to prayer echoes through the narrow alleys, and the scent of spices fills the warm desert air. Set in the heart of the Haouz Plain, Marrakesh is the first of Morocco’s imperial cities, a place where ancient history and modern life intertwine. Tourists come for the markets, the music, and the beauty, but few see the hardship that lies just beneath the surface.

Even as the city modernizes and the standard of living rises for some, many still struggle with poverty, child labor, and limited opportunities. And for those who follow Jesus here, the path is steep — our faith must often remain hidden. Yet God is moving in ways that no power can stop. Across the mountains and plains, people are hearing the Gospel through radio broadcasts and worship in the Berber language. Small groups of believers are gathering quietly, training and encouraging one another to reach their families and their nation.

When I walk through the bustling markets of Marrakesh — past the storytellers, the craftsmen, and the call to prayer — I whisper my own prayer: that one day, this city known for its beauty will also be known for the glory of Jesus shining through His people. The desert is not barren to God. Even here, streams of living water are beginning to flow.
