Serving as a worship Pastor for Faith City Wodonga in the North East region for 14 years, Paula's heart and vision was to release an album of songs of faith that would inspire people to believe God through the good times and the trials, this being the message of her new album 'Just Believe'.

Over the last five years of this amazing journey, it was out of a time of testing in her own personal faith (overcoming illness), that these songs became the real inspiration for the album. Songs like "never give up", "Uncover" and the title track "Just Believe" really speak about how God brings us through if we hold onto Him in faith and just believe.

The album, 'Just Believe', produced by David Holmes and co produced by Andy Sorenson at the Grove studios in Sydney (2006), was an amazing blessing. Such an inspirational team of people to work alongside and co produce the albums.

Paula is passionate about sharing her testimony of healing, music and worship, it's all an expression of the things she loves most ~ Her Saviour Jesus, her family,singing and seeing people's lives changed by faith in Jesus Christ. She loves to lead people into the presence of God, and loves to see lives touched and changed by His presence.

Paula says,

"Music is such a powerful tool and worship changes the atmosphere, where people come into church from their busy week and then as they begin to sing and worship, faith begins to build in their hearts, right before your eyes, people are changed, hope and peace are restored from being in the presence of God. That's what God does. I love it, this is what I live for. As worship focuses on Jesus, everything else grows dim!"

Paula's message of hope and healing in Jesus, come through in her songs of faith on her album 'Just Believe'.
It's her heart that the album 'Just believe' will inspire others to believe that the impossible is possible, with God.
