Testimonials

  • We at St. Paul are so thankful to Nick for spending time with our parish community and leading us in a 3 day presentation on Mary. Nick has a gift for making the faith come alive, he speaks from the heart, shares his own journey, and at the same time gives us solid teaching that helps us grow in love for our faith. His personable and down-to-earth style made everyone feel connected and inspired. We are truly grateful for the way he helped us draw closer to Jesus through Mary.

  • I would like to thank Nick for his time with us here at Mary of Bethlehem Parish Family. His presentation was very well prepared and very well received. It spoke to many of the issues we are currently addressing and his inviting, personal and spiritual approach was welcome. I appreciated his integration of theological and prayerful insights, plus his gift of music. He was able to connect with people in a very real way. His life's journey has given him a very unique perspective of Catholicism with a deep appreciation of our Catholic history, theology and love of the Eucharist.

  • We were so blessed to have Nick and Alina lead a mission at our parish! They were engaging, uplifting, and energetic, while at the same time calling people to deepen their Catholic faith. Many of our parishioners related to Nick's testimony. We received A LOT of great feedback. People of all backgrounds can benefit from the message and music this couple has to share.

  • I have known Nick De La Torre for over a decade. He is a faith-filled, talented musician and speaker. His love for God is evident in all that he does. For the past several years I have also gotten to know Alina who shares Nick's faith and abilities. Nick and Alina complement one another beautifully. I highly recommend them as presenters and leaders of praise and worship. Any parish would be blessed by their presence.

  • They have very interesting stories. And they do it through their stories, but also through their music. They're both very strong and great composers.
