Dear Nick
May the peace of Christ be with you and your loved ones. I want to thank you sincerely for your presentation at our annual youth conference. Your concert had so many good messages, and the youth learned new things. For example, I know most of them had not heard of St. Therese or the RCIA the way you put it, or the Mass the way you sing about it. The workshop you gave ("Absolutes? Absolutely!") was quite well attended, and the kids really enjoyed your skit. I am sure that you got your message across. One of the evaluations written by a youth said, "Nick Alexander was awesome and energetic."
I agree with this person. You were very energetic and really worked at getting the youth on fire for God and for the Mass. Your songs really were wonderful, and I especially liked the emphasis you placed on encouraging the youth to have a greater appreciation for the Eucharist.
Sincerely,
Maria Elena Ponce

Hi Nick!
Just wanted to give you a thumbs way, way up on your incredible ministry! I saw you today on Life on the Rock and was cracking up - you are hilarious, and great lyrics! (I esp. loved Should I stand or kneel :-))
Wow, what a gift God has given you and how sorely we need it in the Catholic church!
God bless and may your ministry continue to grow!

Nick --
Our most conservative teacher, the "C" in the RCIA song, admitted to me she was impressed that you used the NEW Pope's recent encyclical in today's presentation FIRST, then began quoting JPII.
Our dance instructor said this was the "fastest that a teacher in-service has ever gone by" and one of our math teachers thanked me TWICE for bring you here.
I think Bill has finally caught his breath from being our "R"!!
Thanks for making the LONG lay-over today and coming to BL!

Though it honestly took me a bit to get use to your voice ... it did not take me time to get use to is your wonderful message, humor, and use of parody to make an exceptional educational Catholic CD. I love all the songs and have purchased all 3 of your albums. I just want to say thank you for your great work and I do wish I would have listened to you at WYD Toronto, as I was there!
