Reaching the Youth of our Culture with the Power of the Gospel—D.A.Y. (Deliverance Among Youth) is a non-profit organization committed to that mission. Born and raised in Danbury, Connecticut, David “DAY” Farrell began writing lyrics and producing music at a young age. At 21 years old, he packed up all of his belongings and set out on a cross-country journey that led him to Los Angeles, CA, where he connected with the ministry of Bishop Clarence E. McClendon. He began serving in both the Music and Youth departments at Full Harvest International Church.

 

While in L.A., DAY recorded a demo with a Roc Nation music producer, opening doors to new opportunities and placing him before some of Hip Hop’s legends. Yet, the divine call on his life had a stronger pull—but not without tribulation.

 

DAY was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and endured aggressive chemotherapy treatments to rid his body of golf ball-sized tumors throughout his neck and chest. What couldn’t kill him only made him stronger. The disease deepened his faith and ignited an even greater passion to proclaim the Gospel through his music. “U Made Me Better,” written immediately after the diagnosis, became a declaration of praise, thanking God in advance for what DAY believed would come to pass—total restoration of his body.

 

As his music ministry grew, DAY was eventually declared “medically cured” and began to gain attention from media outlets as the ministry started bridging the gap between the Gospel and the secular music industry. DAY has performed at notable venues across the nation. His performances at events such as McDonald’s Gospel Fest (Newark, NJ), Higher Calling (Brooklyn, NY), RapFest (Bronx, NY), and GraceFest (Los Angeles, CA) have been several of the doors that have opened by the grace and favor of the Lord. DAY has been honored to share the stage with prominent Christian Hip Hop artists and some of Gospel music’s most beloved voices.
