Kitty Cleveland will be our guest speaker and she will speak on “
Beloved: Finding My Identity in Christ”. Kitty shares her personal testimony of how the Lord healed her identity as beloved daughter of the Most High King after 40 years of extreme yo-yo dieting and body loathing. With humor and vulnerability, she encourages women to let go of false ideas of body perfection and to see themselves through God's eyes of mercy and unconditional love.
Kitty Cleveland’s primary mission as a daughter of God is to faithfully provide for the care and feeding of her husband, Mel, and her daughter, Cecilia. They are her life and joy!
Second to that is her mission as a lay Catholic evangelist.
If she had to boil down the essence of what she feels called to do, it is to
encourage people—whether through music, storytelling, or teaching from the great Catholic spiritual writers and her own life experience. Her heart burns with a desire to share the riches of our Catholic faith, especially to lapsed or lukewarm Catholics. She submits herself to the teaching authority of the Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church in matters of faith and morals, and she delights in her guidance.
