On stage w/u at New VentureCasey Scarpulla - New Venture Christian Fellowship 2/21/2010Hey Sarah! I don't know if you remember me, but I am one of the girls that sang with you up in stage at New Venture this weekend (the young one). Haha. I am really bummed that i didnt have the chance to say bye to you after the last service on Sunday, I had some family obligations. Well I just wanted to thank you sooo much for allowing me to sing up there with you, it was a great pleasure. I would absolutely love to do it again. You have such an amazing voice, you brought the house to thier feet with a standing ovation after your solos on Sunday. Well of course you saw. :) I have really been thinking a lot about the advice you gave me about getting back into playing the piano, I wouldnt want to be a Diva. Haha. And to start writing my own songs. I have always loved singing but I never thought i would do anything further than singing at church, but you have inspired me to do so much more. Thank you for everything. Love, Casey Scarpulla :) concertBaldvin Baldvinsson - Filadelfia Church 2/14/2010This concert was the best concert that I have ever been at...EVER..!

Live Every Love SongScott Smith - Revival Christian Fellowship 2/14/2010You sang this song at my church today and my wife and I were moved to tears. My wife lost her mother to cancer when she was 19 and I lost my grandmother to lung cancer when I was 10. May God bless you. Hills Alive Rapid City SDScott Johnson - Cafe 10:31 2/2/2010Back in 2007 you were at Hills Alive in Rapid City SD. I just wanted to let you know how much it meant to me that you were wandering around with all the fans after your set. Your Worship was so Sincere and also the Love that you shared with the audience. We had brought my sons and a nephew and they still talk about you and how you hugged them all and told them you love them! You are definately one of the Kindest most Loving worship leaders! You left a lasting impression with these young men by your example! Thank you for your honesty and sincerety in your life and your music! May God bless you and your mission! your story--plugged inHelen Vrooman - Saddleback Church - Girls Night Out 1/30/2010Sarah,
Thanks for pointing us to Jesus last night...my 19 year old daughter attended with me and we were blown away! You rocked the Refinery...so excited to see how God is working and using your life as an awesome testimony of His grace & love!
Much love & blessings,
Helen your storyKrista - Saddleback Church - Girls Night Out 1/30/2010I too fell away and was angry with God...My marriage ended and I lost my mom during the same time, and I thought,... i was faithful, I obeyed Him, I waited for His answers, and that was it?! How could He let my marriage fail? How could He let me be a single mom with out my mom( my best friend) He took so much away so quickly...I wondered how God could let me hurt so badly if he loves me so much. -I am healing now. I am not angry anymore. I am resurected, again, and will also share my story with others of how God is always there even when man or the world fails me. Amen Girls Night Out!Alice - Saddleback Church - Girls Night Out 1/30/2010What an amazing voice God has given you! Thank you for sharing your testimony with us too. Looking forward to hearing more from you @ Saddleback. You were a true blessing to me & my girlfriends last night. generalTracy - Lighthouse Church 1/24/2010Just wanted to let you know I truly enjoyed listening to you play today.My daughter Sami introduced us and I sat behind u at church. I had to leave after you were done so i didn't get a chance to tell you that I saw Tammy Trent at West Gate Chapel in Toledo Ohio a couple of years ago and I didn't think I would enjoy anyone singing that type of music as much again until I heard u sing today... Do you do any concerts with her that would be a great show..I know she tours with a woman's group she is a wonderful singer and a great person.. Sarah in ConcertTony DiChiro - Woodcrest 1/17/2010We just came from a performace at our Church. Sarah is fantastic. I was moved by all her selections. In particular "Sit With You Awhile" really connected with my heart. Music has always been an important part of our services, so I especially appreciate someone like Sarah who can really BRING IT!!!. Reminded me a little of Janice and Bonnie Rait. Loved it. Woodcrest. FiestyHillary Harper - New Life Church 1/11/2010:) Hello. I went to 1030 Sunday service at New Life. Was blessed when you sang the last song. Loved how you sang it different than the norm. lol and then when I walked past you while walking to the bathroom you said 'fiesty' lol. That comment was very true that day. I wrestled with some stuff but in the end God was glorified. Just wanted to say hello and this is the first time I have heard of you and am very blessed. Keep in pursuit of our Father. Maybe I'll see you around again.
God Bless You were at my church today :DRebekah Sanders - New Life Church 1/10/2010Hi! You sang at my church today (New LIfe Church @ Renton)! I had never heard of you before, but i thought u were really fun and it seems like u really enjoy what u do :) Hello!Paula V. - Maata Nakyvissa 1/5/2010My sister bought your cd (Where the past meets today), from Maata Näkyvissä. I have listened it too, and you know what? I love it! :) I liked the concert just as much as the cd, but I just haven't remembered to tell you that! So I'm glad to do that now. I wish you'll come to Finland again sometime! I'll be there, if it happens some day. Your music gives me a lot of encouragement to believe in God, when it feels the hardest thing in the world. So, that's all I have to say: Thank you! Your storyCathy O - Sparks Christian Fellowship 1/4/2010Hi, your introduction about yourself, regarding your abusive relationship, really touched me. I have recently escaped from one that verged physical abuse, and I gained many scars and bruises from the emotional abuse I received. You mentioned yours stemmed from leaving a light on... I can relate so well to that - mine was usually because I didn't get to my phone quick enough at all hours. I agree this needs to be brought to light, but at the same time, I know for myself, it's hard to admit that I was a victim. I feel so much shame for falling into the trap. Thank you, for your courage to stand up, and declare your past. It's encouraging to me. Thank you. Sparks Christain FellowshipGayle - Sparks Christian Fellowship 1/4/2010HI,
I just wanted to thank you so much for your performance yesterday. It was so moving and you are so adorable and angelic. I wanted to thank you for telling your story about being an abused wife. I too suffered through 7 1/2 years of an abusive marriage and one day, I left with the clothes on my back and never looked back. I had to leave my two very young daughters behind to avoid being killed. It's been more than 20 years, but the pain and the abuse lives on, but through Christ I manage it well and have more insite on what to avoid in relationships. My 18 year old daughter was with me yesterday in church and I am very happy she was there to hear your story. May God bless you and give you continued success spreading the wonderful Word of God through your beautiful voice and words. Christine Karadanis - Sparks Christian Fellowship 1/3/2010 your voice truly moved me. It's so powerful and beautiful!
i downloaded Amazing Grace.
thank you. I always enjoy your singingChad - Heartland 12/28/2009Thank you so much for the two hugs. I am hope we get to see you again next year. That was an amazing time. I can't wait to be able to get your song day and night. That was awesome. InspirationSarah Maynard - Life Church - "The Source" 12/21/2009Hi Sarah,
I am 30 years old. I have been listening to your music since 2006 and I love it. I still have to purchase your most recent cd. The reason I am writing you is because I want to say Thank You for sharing at the Source (Roscoe 12/19). Thank you for being so real and genuine about your abusive experience. You have been through the bad but you chose to see past it and know that God would RESTORE. You chose healing. Anger and abuse has such a huge affect on people's lives and it takes so much time to heal. Sadly some people never get to the restore part because they can't see it. I want to tell you that not only are you a great musician to me, but now you have also become an inspiration to me. Thank you Sarah! God has worked a lot on restoring who I am internally and becoming happy, but I know there are a lot more amazing exciting things to happen yet in my future, as well as yours. Great job in your career and all your pursuits! fundyana - Heartland 12/16/2009hi Sarah you went to the school that i go to hemet elementy the day that you went is december16,2009 you are so right when you said when people make fun of you you would be famous for what they made fun of when they said to you that your hair was ugly they were just lying they were jealous that you had pretty hair i wish you were a part of my family i would love that please........right back if you have a chance to read it love your songs
Dyana Rivera fundyana - Heartland 12/16/2009hi Sarah you went to my school on December16,2009 thank youJohn Scott - Community Christian Church 12/15/2009You always "bring it" with heart and soul! Thank you!!! Thanks!!!Brian - Community Christian Church 12/13/2009Thank you for your wonderful words. This Christmas season we are minus one in our family, my wonderful mother-in-law. She passed away last January. She will be sorely missed. Your words encouraged us to learn to praise God even through the valleys. Keep up the great work for our Lord. beautiful worshipStephanie - Community Christian Church 12/13/2009Thank you so much for visiting Community Christian Chruch this week. Your songs and your story were so touching! Thank you for sharing your beauitful singing and songwriting with us. God bless you! Just amazing!Joanna - Calvary of Albuquerque 12/10/2009Sarah gave a beautiful (and very intimate) performance. Thanks so much for sharing your testimony with us. And we were all just blown away by your amazing voice and incredible lyrics. You've definitely won more than a few fans in Albuquerque! :) Sunridge Church performanceanonymous - Sunridge Community Church 12/7/2009I heard you for the first time yesterday at Sunridge Church. I couldn't keep the tears from streaming down my face. I too know the pain, the fears and all the confusing dilemmas that can make a person feel stuck in an abusive marriage. I recently took the step to get out of mine. Hearing your story and relating to your lyrics was encouraging and validating to me. I was deeply moved as you said you used to hope that God was faithful and that now you know He is. Praise God! Sarah K. at Sunridge DessertAlyssa - Sunridge Community Church - Girls night 12/5/2009I had fun at Sunridge at the annual Christmas dessert. I was sitting at a table near the stage. Sarah Kelly has an awesome voice and lyrics that really seem to come from the heart. I am glad that she shared her story, and I am particularly grateful for the happy ending (like Sarah Kelly's mom:). I got a "no diarrhea" hug (teehee). She is very caring and hilarious! Anonymous - Sunridge Community Church 12/5/2009 Your songs and talk hit too close to home. Thank you for sharing and maybe one day I will be as strong as you.
Gods Blessing................ The Second of DecemberLeah Albin - Calvary of Albuquerque 12/4/2009Dear Dear Sarah!!! I attend Calvary church and go on most Wednesdays. I didn't know you were gong to be performing on the second of December. I almost didn't go that evening...for many reasons. For the reasons you sang about and shared with us that night. God compelled me to drag myself there that night and that's when I heard your beautiful, moving voice and your story. Thank you for reminding me that I am not an afterthought! Your story gives me courage Sarah! Thank you for being you!!!
Most Sincerely,
Leah THANK YOU!Debbie - Calvary of Albuquerque 12/3/2009I don't even know how to say how overwhelmingly blessed and honored I was to be in church at Calvary of Albuquerque last night and watch Sarah LOVE her way through the service. I laughed and wept and clapped and praised and thanked our precious delicious and perfect God for taking broken pottery and making it whole and worthy of the treasure He makes of each of us -- Oh thank you for coming to New Mexico and gifting us (me) with your beauty -- your joy -- your healing -- your INCREDIBLE VOICE -- your gifts -- your GRACE -- blessings and you will be in my daily prayers -- Thank you, thank you, thank you -- for letting those of us who have been broken see the beauty of the wholeness He can and will work in a life -- and one who chooses to fall in love with Him and His perfect Grace.... god bless youjonna heikkinen - Maata Nakyvissa 11/23/2009I just want to say thank you from your concert in Finland.

I just want to tell you that I loved your show last night ! your honesty and power on stage was truly amazing !
Love you so much please come back soon.
And thank you for hugging me over the table :D
Love
Ingvar Thank you!Ansku - Maata Nakyvissa 11/22/2009I don't know do you even read these messages, but I really hope you do! I just want to let you know how amazing your concerts were in Maata Näkyvissä, in Turku. I had never heard your songs before but I bought your newest album right away after the first concert on Saturday.. I like Not quite home and Amazing grace the most. I actually learnt myself how to play Not quite home by piano.. :D You have great voice and great songs and it's so cool that you give all glory to Jesus Christ! I love your attitude and admire you strong feeling about our Lord. I can't find the right words to tell about all my feelings and my English is not very good, but i want to tell you one thing. I'm having problems with my relationship with God, and I felt I don't have time for God and for faith. After your concert i cried and prayed and I felt stronger. Now I'm coming back to the right way with my doubts, but with my growing faith, too. So, thank you! And thank God! Love you! God bless :) Best morning everLotta - Maata Nakyvissa 11/19/2009First concert of the day, and though I had already seen Sarah singing in the big concert the day before, this small concert at 8:55 was the best. I was in the line waiting to get in when the song "Brand New Day" started. When I got trough the security check I just ran to the concert hall, in the crowd and started singing. I had gone to sleep at 01:30am and woke up at 07:00am, I was really tired, but hearing Sarah's song really cleared the sleep from my eyes and gave the best kick start for the last day of the festivals. Thank you, Sarah, for coming to Finland, singing my favorite song and being so wonderful. You are truly a beautiful person, inside and out, and honest with a big H! Please come back soon! Maata Näkyvissä,Turku,FinlandAnniina - Maata Nakyvissa 11/17/2009Hey! I just wanted to thank you. You are SO amazing! I saw both your concerts here in Finland (and both times I was in front row!) and now I'm listening your music all the time. You have so beautiful voice and you are very beautiful and kind person. Finland loves you, so you have to come here again! :)
Thank you very much.
Take care! Oh my Lord!Vilma - Maata Nakyvissa 11/16/2009I had never ever heard of you before but when I heard you sing the first time in maata näkyvissä, i cried. It was a touching, tender moment nad I thankyou for giving me hope and for sharing your experience. I wanted to come to hug you but I didn't get a chance : ( So i'm giving you a virtual one Thank you!Raw Bananas - Maata Nakyvissa 11/16/2009I wanted to tell you that you gave me the best Christmas gift this year. And I wanted to thank you for that.
You gave me hope. The way you talked about things that shouldn’t happen, like a piece of my life. And your songs spoke straight to my heart. Take me away especially. I kinda wish God would take me away. Take me home. But your gig in Turku made me realize that though I don’t feel like I belong here, God still wants me to be here and that He will never desert me.
(I had about a page written, but it seems it doesn't fit here, so I need to put the most important thigs here).
I've been in a kind of freefall, not knowing when I'll hit hit the ground. Faith has seemed more like a curse than a gift. But your gig in Turku made me feel like there's a chance that God will catch me. And I hope He will. I didn't get a chance to hug you in Turku, so this is my virtual hug. I hope I'll be able to hug you and thank you for real. God bless!
P.S. Your awsome! :) Amazing voice!New Fan - Maata Nakyvissa 11/16/2009I heard a little bit of your gig at Turku, Finland and I have to say that you have very very beautiful voice! Thank you for that opportunity to let us hear such amazing voice you got. ThanksVilma Valtanen - Maata Nakyvissa 11/16/2009Thank you from your gig. You were right about the fact that most of us (the listeners) handn't heard about you before, but you really sang straight to our withdrawn finnish hearts. I myself was part of the staff of maata näkyvissä so I didn't have time to come to hug you but I wish to see you again and this is my virtual hug to you. It's great work you do. I'll be praying for you. Amazing!Aino Saarinen - Maata Nakyvissa 11/15/2009So, the two concerts in Maata Näkyvissä -festival in Turku, Finland. Oh my Lord, thank you for bringing Sarah Kelly into my life. IT WAS TOTALLY AMAZING!
I don't think that I've ever had such big feelings and I cried and I cried. I loved every one of your songs!
You know, I've had some serious problems with my faith in Jesus Christ, my Lord. Sometimes it's just too damn hard.. But now, after the whole festival and especially Sarah, after your concerts, I DO have faith more than ever. I'm going to thank my Lord for the rest of my life for bringing you to my life. Thank you Sarah, you helped God to make me more whole person that I've ever been. I totally fell in love with you and God again. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
With all my hugs and with all my love, Aino

CAN'T WAIT! Canyon Lake Church Concert.Jenine Anderson - Canyon Lake Community Church - Concert 10/30/2009Sarah. I really enjoyed your concert. My friend invited me, but I had committed to work that night for a friend. The mgr found out that I would be working 7 nights straight and said no. So I called my friend back. It was like she knew I was going to call back because she just had this feeling that she should wait to call someine else. Lo and behold I called and said that I was able to make it. Can't wait to see you again at Revival next week. You have such an awesome voice!!!!! Such a blessing!Riko Ginete - Life Church Writing Retreat 10/20/2009I can't describe what a blessing it was to just be able to sit/work with you and Jonas and get to hear your hearts on worship and just soaking in that wisdom. So great! Can't wait to see you guys again!!! Thank you!Tammy - Saddleback Church 10/19/2009This was the first time that I have heard your music and the only way I can describe its effect on me this evening was that it cut deep to my soul and really moved me. Thank you for making some of your music available to us via your website.
During your performance, I could not only feel the pain that you sang about but also the revelation as things turned around. I also enjoyed sharing in your happiness with your new marriage. It reminds me how important it is to be equally yoked in our relationships.
Best to you always
