Testimonials

Reverand Jim T. Bennett

Minister of Wagener United Methodist Church

Wagener, SC

"On behalf of the congregation of Wagener United Methodist Church, I want to say 'Thank you' for a message and a witness that spoke to our very souls. Your presentation is a much needed ministry within the churches of today. You tell a story and make a presentation that people receive readily, willingly, and wholeheartedly because there are no barriers placed by those who hear and receive it. It is so refreshing and so gentle a witness that everyone wants to embrace and receive your message. They are drawn by the spirit of the living Christ.

The churches across the southeast need to hear your messages. You have been to our church three times with your dynamic ministry witness. Your ministry speaks to the heart and the soul of men, women, children of all ages. You have mastered the technique of delivering a Christian message where people do not feel threatened and neither are they offended by the true word of God. You have named your ministry correctly because it is truly a gentle witness. Everyone who sees it leaves with a new understanding and a lasting impression given to them by the Holy Spirit.

Carla, I truly thank you for the hours and hours that you have invested so wisely in writing and rehearsing these ministry presentations. May God continue to direct you with his glorious spirit and a creative heart to come before many more congregations to present a gentle spirit before them..."

Pastor Wesley Greene

Minister of Highland Pines Baptist

Aiken, SC

"As Pastor of Highland Pines Baptist Church in Aiken, SC, I am recommending the ministry of Carla Cloud. After one of my members
shared with me that she had seen one of Carla’s presentations, we invited her to do the evening service at our church. At the service, she presented the story of Eve.

Her presentation of Eve was one of the most powerful I have seen. Our congregation was truly blessed by what she shared with us.

I was impressed with her talent and how well she presented the story of Eve. Every aspect of her presentation was professional and Biblical. We were so impressed that we’ve invited her back for our Homecoming. She will then present to us Mary: The Mother of Jesus. Her ministry is truly inspired by God."

Sandy Randall

WMU Director of Talatha Baptist Church

Aiken, SC

"As WMU Director at Talatha Baptist Church, I have been privileged to host The Gentle Witness, not once, but three times! After she first appeared as Mary, we knew we had to have The Gentle Witness back. What a blessing she was! Mary, Elizabeth, and Eve literally stepped out of the pages of the Bible and onto our stage. We could actually feel Mary’s joy and wonderment at the birth of Jesus and her sorrow at His crucifixion. With Elizabeth, we experienced what it is like to want a baby and not have that prayer answered until late in life, and then to have it leap in her womb and be filled with the Holy Spirit when she heard Mary’s greeting. When Eve appeared at our recent ladies’ conference, we all sat in awe as she described the garden, the temptation, and the guilt she felt. In each of these appearances, our ladies were blessed to hear and see the Bible come to life in a way that made it very relevant and revealing to their lives. Indeed, lives were blessed and changed.

I wholeheartedly recommend The Gentle Witness."

"Mary brought her story to our UMW Christmas gathering this evening through A Gentle Witness. Such an intimate setting to receive this beautiful message of the birth of Jesus. So glad we had some of our young teens attending to also share in this experience. Invite her to your group or church service for a wonderful blessing.

"Recently, I had the pleasure of seeing two historic women of the Bible (Abigail, David's 3rd wife, and Mary, mother of Jesus) portrayed beautifully by Carla Cloud in Perdido Key, Florida. Mrs. Cloud is performing these characters as part of 'A Gentle Witness' production. I was mesmerized and in awe as she walked us through a chapter in these characters' lives, complete with period costume.

She told us about a time period in the characters' lives, interweaving Bible stories we know by heart as well as little known facts, with researched historical accuracy. Anyone with an interest in the Bible would love seeing these characters come to life in front of their eyes. I am truly blessed to have been able to witness these productions and look forward to seeing all of her characters."
