My primary mission as a daughter of God is to faithfully provide for the care and feeding of my husband, Mel, and my daughter, Cecilia. They are my life and my joy! Second to that is my mission as a lay Catholic evangelist, a calling that has often surprised and delighted me. I give thanks to God for using me in this way, and I look forward to the continuing unfolding of this great adventure with Him.
If I had to boil down the essence of what I feel called to do, it is to encourage people, whether through singing, storytelling, or teaching from the great spiritual writers and my own life experience. Tears and laughter from the audience (and from me) are not uncommon, and I consider them to be a true gift of the Holy Spirit. These audiences have ranged from women’s retreats and prayer breakfasts to leadership groups to large conferences.
My heart burns with a desire to share the riches of our faith, and I gratefully submit myself to the teaching authority of the Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church in matters of faith and morals.
By virtue of our baptism, we have been called to become evangelists in a world where despair, godlessness, and violence cry out for a remedy. My job is to rally the troops and encourage them to join me in this mission to bring the Good News to the ends of the earth, starting in our own hearts, homes, and parishes.
In Christ, our Hope,
Kitty Cleveland

BIOGRAPHY
Kitty Cleveland, a singer/songwriter and inspirational speaker from New Orleans, began her professional career as a lawyer and then as a college professor. But in an adoration chapel one day in 1998, as she searched for God during a devastating family crisis, she clearly heard the Lord Jesus call her to become a “music missionary.”
Kitty heeded the call and has since released 12 CDs of music and prayer–including two CDs with Lighthouse Catholic Media. Her latest CD, Hail, Holy Queen, was the first of her CD’s to climb the secular Billboard chart. She has appeared numerous times on television, on the radio, in concert, and as a keynote speaker both at home and abroad.
Kitty lives in the New Orleans area with her musician husband and teen daughter, whom they adopted from China in 2005. In addition to praying with people for healing and encouragement, she enjoys cooking, gardening, oil painting, and is currently working on her first book about her father’s unjust imprisonment and dramatic release by the U.S. Supreme Court.
