"I have had the opportunity to know Kara, and have observed her ministry and work throughput the past three years. I can verify personally that she is a women of moral character, of true and deep faith in Christ, and that all her work is orthodox and completely in good standing with the teachings of the Catholic Church. I have personally observed the fruitfulness of Kara’s ministry, and how her songs, words and testimony have powerfully touched and ministered to the hearts of others.
