TESTIMONIALS

Joe’s new book Cry Oneness is a very captivating and well-written journal of how God has led Joe into a closer walk with Him over the past 15 years. Joe’s book easily convinces us all of God’s love for each one of us. Once I began to read it, I could not put it down. – Tony Coscia, author of Tony’s 50,000 Co-incidence Miracles


Joe’s book, Cry Oneness, shows that each person’s life is imbued with God’s graces and miracles. Joe has a special gift for sharing those through poetry and witnesses. As you read this book, you will become more open to God’s Graces and miracles. – Fr. Bill McCarthy, MSA, of My Father’s House in Moodus, CT


Joseph Avalos has written a truly inspirational book. Besides its being a fascinating read, I believe it will help those who are fighting battles with alcohol and drugs, as well as fighting spiritual battles. Its message of gratitude to God is one that can be of tremendous value to all people. – Grayson Hugh, Music Artist, Graysonhugh.net (check out his music store at graysonhughstore.net)


Cry Oneness is a book of poems and locutions that speak to the spiritual benefit of self-examination and of questioning the values we hold dear. Just maybe the divisive messages that the media pounds away on the airwaves occupies our minds more on problems of the world and less on the solutions. Cry Oneness brings our thoughts and prayers to bear on the purpose of unity and the desire to love others unconditionally. The operative solution aimed at this purpose is love, mercy and trust…which is God Himself. This message is brought home in the 65 or so poems that Joseph Avalos was inspired to put on paper and to music. The rhythm and words blend in a way that warms the heart. How does a fireman whose training was for a medic…not English literature or music come to write so superbly? Read this book and decide for yourself.” – Fred Wellborn, Catholic Evangelist
