From Prison to Paradise: A Story of Radical Trust in God's Divine Mercy

This title will be released on February 14, 2025

Deacon Carl Cleveland was a loving, successful, faithful man when his world came crashing down. Sentenced unjustly to prison, he endured the loss of all he had: his reputation, home, career, and family. From Prison to Paradise is the moving and inspirational account of Carl and his family discovery of God’s mercy and peace in the midst of their ordeal. Kitty Cleveland, an acclaimed singer and retreat leader, shares her own journey of surrender and trust, along with her father’s captivating and often humorous stories from “the inside.” Immaculee Ilibagiza, survivor of the Rwandan genocide and bestselling author, writes, “If you have ever struggled to make sense of suffering, forgive, or renew your faith, this book has something for you.”

Kitty, All our love and prayers to you in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Hope that you are OK, and that you and your family escaped major damage from this monster storm. My cousin in Mandeville (Suzanne) reported that she had no damage to her house, so I am hoping that you fared as well. […]

DIVINE MERCY MIRACLE STORY

This is a video of me telling my dad’s Divine Mercy miracle story, which Jeff Cavins asked me to do this for his new prayer study called “Walking Towards Eternity.” I can’t help but get a bit choked up, so please bear with me!  God’s greatest attribute is MERCY! Pass it on…

Love’s other name is Mercy!
