The Katinas


This amazing group of five Samoan brothers visited our church this Sunday and led the entire service. It was so powerful! We sang worship songs and listened to them speak about Jesus and their families and it just felt like we were all apart of one big family.

One of the things that stood out about this group was their focus on the FAMILY. They emphasized forgiveness, love, and staying connected with each other. This really hit home for me. Since I have moved back home, my family has been struggling and things have been hard. I've been feeling discouraged and hopeless. But the brothers said something that blessed me. They said no matter how the situation may look, or what your family has been through, God still has a plan for your FAMILY. To hear that meant a lot for me because yes I've always heard God has a plan for me, but rarely if not ever have I heard someone clearly say that He has a plan for my FAMILY. And this impacted me so much because it gave me hope that even though times are tough right now, God can heal brokenness and use it for His glory. We can and will be a strong family united with God and with each other.

That is my prayer for my family. Thank you Katina brothers.
