Testimonials | |
| "We want to thank you, again, for the very challenging and encouraging message you brought to us at our annual ladies retreat. We were so blessed and strengthened in the presence of the Lord through your effectual ministry. This has brought forth much fruit, and your fruit will remain. May the Lord multiply back to you the life that you poured out on us!" | |

| "I was so blessed attending our church’s women’s retreat and hearing Catherine Duran speak. Her message was very equipping to me and it was clear that the Lord has worked in her life to bring such a powerful message.
Catherine’s ministry was one of love, equipping, strengthening, and building up individuals. She showed us just how much the Lord loves us and how He wants to use us to battle the things in this world that will only draw us away from God’s purpose and plan for us! When I went home, I took what I learned and taught the lesson to my children, whom I home school. Her ministry has touched my family and I would recommend her as an effective speaker. Catherine is allowing the Lord to use her in mighty ways as she is preparing people to stand firm against the darkness in this world!" | |

| "It has been my great joy to minister together with Catherine at more than one retreat. Catherine shares powerful worship, inspirational music, and a life changing story. More than that, she shares her heart. And those who hear her are never the same. She is a tremendous blessing. " | |

"Catherine has an amazing and passionate story to share with women that touches us to our souls. Her creativity in ministering the love of Christ integrated with her own personal experiences is relatable and authentic. After Catherine shared with the ladies at our church, I heard many responses about how women felt encouraged and motivated to further develop their relationship with Jesus and not give up." | |
| Teresa Quinn Canyon View Christian Fellowship Pastor of Spiritual Formation | |
| |
"Catherine has responded with grit and grace to cruel and difficult changes in her life. When Catherine speaks of the crucible, she has been there. When she tells you she was overwhelmed by circumstances and had it not been for the Rock of our Salvation she would have been swept away, it is not just a story-it is real! When Catherine talks of the daily struggle to find meaning and hope, it is more than pious platitudes-she understands." | |

"Catherine is truly genuine, both in heart and in spirit, with a sweetness and vitality that spill over with love for Christ and His children. Whether in spoken word, through song or just a smile and a hug, Catherine's ministry to God's people rings true and sincere, and draws those around her into the arms of the Lord. She has changed my life, through her friendship and love, and has filled me with longing to know Him deeper and to serve Him with all I am." | |

"I have worked with Catherine for many years. Her leadership in directing is encouraging, focused, effective, and, well, fun. As she leads in worship, one senses the very presence of the Lord. She shares her heart as one who has walked a great distance alongside Him. Her spiritual maturity has led to, rather than detracted from, her immense joy in the Lord. I heartily recommend her to those seeking a deeper experience with God." | |

"Catherine Duran is a devoted and talented woman of God with a passion for leading others into His presence through worship and teaching. She has served our congregation as an interim worship leader and guest speaker. Catherine’s heart for God has beamed through on each occasion she joined us as God used her to impact our church." | |
| Darell Dunlap — Pastor Northstar Church, San Diego | |
| |
"I am always so blessed by the joy and exuberance you display during worship. God has gifted you with a way of expressing His truth, love and joy that overflows to the congregation." | |
| Gordeen Kenton — Children’s Ministry | |

"Thank you for your willingness to submit to the Lord’s direction; it was obvious He had His hand in it every step of the way." | |
| Brenda Doughty — Grief Support Leader | |

"Catherine has a real heart for worship and leading others to Him. Not only is she a competent and experienced worship leader, but she also is very caring and concerned about each one of us in the group. Her prayers during difficult times have been encouraging and uplifting." | |

"You may ask, "Is Catherine Duran for real?" Let me say that she is. I have witnessed her testimony on a daily basis. Through the good times and the bad, the easy and the hard, she lives for Christ. Her faith, love and devotion to God are a living example for her family and friends. Those who know her will tell you that just being around her challenges their faith. When she shares a personal story you feel like you are right there with her. I pray that her testimony will bless you also." | |

"You are so talented and were such a blessing to us. It's great to hear you're stretching out into new realms of ministry. You have so many gifts and talents and it's wonderful how God is using you to encourage others." | |
| Ross Parsley Worship Pastor New Life Church, Colorado Springs | |

"I have known Catherine for many years, and I am pleased to be able to recommend her as a godly woman who loves to communicate the heart of God to a contemporary audience. Catherine has been through considerable personal loss and so her depth of knowledge and perspective comes from the "trenches" of her spiritual journey. Catherine has learned the profundity of Tozer's statement that: God can hardly use a person greatly until He has hurt them deeply." | |
| Mike Quinn Senior Pastor Canyon View Christian Fellowship | |
| |
"Catherine is a gifted musician and speaker who has been used by God to speak hope, truth and healing to broken and hurting people. I have watched her unshakeable faith in God carry her through the hurt and pain to the other side of victory, peace and joy. God has given her a message that doesn't come from a book, but from her own experience with God and learning to stand on His promises." | |
| Pastor Steve Myatt Vista Assembly |

| |
"We have had the divine pleasure of being ushered into God's presence during our Chapels at GMF (Global Missions Fellowship) through Catherine's ministry. We would recommend Catherine to any group without hesitation." |
