What Others Have Said...

  • "Laura and I listened to your CD on the way back to San Diego from Congress. Awesome music. You rock."

    -Jim G
    (San Diego, CA)
  • "I was blessed to have attended a recent concert and was very touched by (Lorraine’s) music, singing, and faith-sharing. Lorraine has a beautiful voice and a gift for drawing one's attention to what is truly important: the presence of God and faith in Jesus. I would highly recommend this CD to enhance your own worship experience at home, in the car, or wherever you enjoy listening to great Christian music."

    -John O.
    (River Ridge, LA)
  • "The concert truly was one of the most special events we have had here…. The kids, faculty and administration couldn’t stop talking about it the next day…this event exceeded our expectations and has aided in the building of fellowship in our entire school."

    Tony B.
    (De La Salle High School - New Orleans, LA)
  • I have listened to the CD literally non-stop since (your concert) and it has ministered to me greatly and brought me into special times of communion and worship and praise of Him…I have listened to Christian worship and contemporary Christian music since 1979…and never have I been ministered to so greatly to get deeper into the presence of God as I have through your music."

    Patricia S.
    (Avondale, LA)
  • "I've also listened to your [CD] (3 times!!). It's gorgeous, as usual. I love your arrangements of the traditional carols. They're so refreshingly original. Love what you did with them. And your voice is just beautiful. I liked In His Presence very much. But, your Memorare is my favorite. Your singing "Ave Maria" over the choir towards the end is wonderful."

    -Fr. Jim M.
    (Chicago, IL)
  • "I would like to take a moment to extend my personal thankfulness to you and to all those who accompanied you for a magnificent and spirit-filled concert at St. Peter Catholic Church. Your vocal performance was truly a magnificent interplay of God-given talents and well developed musical skill. It certainly touched the hearts and minds of so many of our parishioners…your beautiful voice, magnificent musical compositions, and your willingness to share your gifts to others, show that you truly have a heart that is on fire for God."
