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.”

Hi Kitty, I just want to express my deep gratitude to you for bringing Fr. Jacques Philippe into my life.  This has been a particularly difficult year for me (and for many others!) when peace was scarce and God’s voice was so much needed. Your calm reading of these books has been a wonderful balm […]

Every so often God gives us a special gift in the person of another human being. You are that gift. The God within you is very obvious. Your music, your words, and your humor are as magnets drawing souls to the God within you.

Live-stream our celebration on the Solemnity of the Assumption!

Dear Friends,

If you are not able to join us in person for the wonderful gathering at Our Lady of Hope on August 15, 2023, to celebrate the Assumption and the third anniversary of our Morning Glories rosary cenacle, we will once again make it possible for you to join us on YouTube via live stream, thanks to our Ceci. Ceci has agreed to spend her day at the computer so that you can participate, no matter where you are in the world!

Payment: Rather than charging a fee, we are humbly asking for tips to go towards Ceci’s college fund. She’s already set up a special savings account for this purpose. Any donations to the cause can be sent via:

  1. Venmo  (@Bosco330, last 4 digits of phone: 6758), or
  2. Check: Payable to Kitty Cleveland, PO Box 843, Madisonville, LA 70447 (with “Ceci” in the memo).

How to join: Please email Ceci (ceci @ kittycleveland.com–without the spaces) and let her know that you’d like the private link, which she will send to you within a day or two before the event. Know that she will send you the link whether or not you have supported her efforts financially. Please pray for her either way as she discerns her path forward–your prayers are priceless!
