I am truly blessed knowing her both personally and professionally. I greatly respect and admire her, ad I'm proud to call her my Sister in Christ!"

“Martha Fernández-Sardina realizes that love must be the springboard of all our Christian action and outreach – and she walks the talk! In spite of pending deadlines, when she witnessed an accident on my property, she chose to be alongside this person at the hospital, staying by her side for hours and praying with her for healing. As I was not there, this story touched me deeply and I wondered what I would have done: would I have gone that extra mile? Evangelization, I am understanding, is not a only teaching the Word of God, but a response to God in the moment to care for people, so that they will know Him. Thank you, Martha!”

"My wife Sylvia and I have known Martha Fernández-Sardina for many years now. We first heard Martha give one of her many inspiring talks at a Advent Mission at our parish. Since then, we have bought several of her talks on CD and DVD, and have participated in several more of her public speaking engagements on the new evangelization and Christian living. Martha is a tremendously eloquent speaker on any subject, particularly in her field, the new evangelization. We have seen her many television appearances here in the U.S. and abroad: she always excels in her deliveries. In my opinion, she mesmerizes people when she talks because she is so good at it – I just love to hear her! She has tremendous knowledge and an excellent choice of words and analogies that keep you focused throughout her talks – and she gives you solid answers, tips, and encouragement to love and live the Faith and share it with others."

​"He conocido a muy pocas personas con el corazón evangelizador de Martha. Su amor por el Señor es palpable en todo lo que dice y hace... Martha takes seriously the Great Commission: 'Go and make disciples.' Her desire to make the Lord known everywhere to everybody is obvious in her passionate preaching and teaching."

"'The 'Festival de Fe' helped me find Jesus, turn my life around, and re-discover my church.' This is just one comment we still hear from parishioners at the Shrine of the Sacred Heart in Washington, D.C., a Catholic parish a few miles from the White House, one that has welcomed many and has formed hundreds of Catholic leaders in the Washington Metropolitan area. The blessings are many in our parish, but the 'Hispanic Festival of Faith' events in 2000, 2001, and 2002 were probably some of the best ways to evangelize we have ever experienced in our community. New leaders were formed during the planning and execution of these events. Based on the 'Festival de Fe” we have been able to develop similar events and continue our new evangelization efforts. 'But who was leading the “Festival of Faith” events?', our parishioners still ask? We gladly share with them that it was Ms. Martha Fernández-Sardina, a missionary disciple and new evangelizer. Her organizing and outreach skills produced great results in our community.  Even when she was called to serve in other Archdioceses- and even were she to leave our area again, her legacy here continues and will remain. We pray for her ministry and for her new evangelization efforts and this new endeavor."
