Fernando: Your music is so anointed! "Sing to Jesus" is at the top of my list of favorite lifetime songs! I work at a large, spirit-filled church in Virginia Beach, Virginia and have begun playing your music in the entry foyer throughout the week. Many people have stopped and listened awhile as they pass through, indicating how your music simply ushers them into the presence of God. God truly endowed you with a special gift of bringing people into an atmosphere of praise and worship. Thank you God for Fernando. 01/27/2010 - Norfolk, VA

Every since then, when the world is overwhelming and the Lord seems a bit far away, I pull out your CDs, play them.and my sholders relax, the world around me calms a bit, and I can again focus on our heavenly father. Thank you for your music. May the Lord richly bless you, your family, and your beautiful daughter! 01/23/2010 - Uniontown, OH

Hey brother. I'm trying to download/buy How Deep The Father's Love For Us onto my IPOD shuffle, but only get the video. Can't find it as a single on any of your albums. Please help. Thanks. 01/15/2010 - Virginia Fernando Responds   Thanks for your note. It's not a single on any of my records. The song was on a compilation CD with Max Lucado called Next Door Savior. I have no idea if it's still in print.

Hi Fernando. Grace and peace to you brother.I have enjoyed your music and live performances at Calvary Chapel Albuq for years. A few years ago I leaned on God with the help of your music while I recovered at Presbyterian Hospital from four very diffiult abdominal surgeries within the span of 7 months. I was very sick then but recovered fully with the hope and love of God our father that you were able to remind me then and now. Press on and continue to make beautful music brother. 01/13/2010 - Albuquerque NM

I am a music liturgist at my Polish American Church in Maine.As a convert to Catholicism from being Evangelical, I have a strong love for both traditions. John Michael Talbot showed me the way and that wellspring is flowing over in you, Fernando.Thank you for writing music that is alive. Thank you for being such a conduit of Grace. I am hoping that I can use more of this sort of thing in my church, especially during the wonderful season of deepening, Lent. 01/12/2010 - Maine

My husband and I have loved your music since our first acquaintance on the Promisekeepers CD. Your concert in Helena, MT is one of our fondest concert memories. I wanted to welcome you to Anglicanism after reading the article in "Encompass." I am a worship leader at Christ Church Anglican in Butte, MT. We've been doing blended worship for about 20 years, but find that Anglican worship leaders are rather rare! If you ever offer workshops for us, let me know. Thank you for being the Lord's minstral, and doing it with such grace and beauty. 01/5/2010 - Butte, MT

Dear Fernando: I first heard your music "How deep the Father's Love". From then on I have bought everyone of your cd's I could find! (except your Christmas cd). I have been searching for sheet music for YOUR arrangement of "More Love to Thee". Every one I have found is not what you play on your cd. Even though it says Fernando Ortega. I was hoping you could tell me where or if I can find it. Your music is beautiful, and inspirational, and has touched my heart and life in so many ways. I love the hymns you sing. Please keep up the good work, looking for your newest cd.is there one in the works? Thank You. 01/4/2010 - Ontario, Canada
