SARA TORRES

Sara began to write songs at 17 and has participated in many festivals organized by the Youth Ministry of the Archdiocese of Miami. In 1987, Sara had the privilege to become part of the group of young people that sang Las Mañanitas to Pope John Paul II during his visit to Miami.

In 1989, she joined a group of young musicians, parishioners of Saint Catherine of Sienna. Together they formed the band ROKKA. Alberto Coppo, who was the band leader, is the arranger of Sara's album, Pensando en Tí. During its two years of existence, Rokka participated in many fund raising events for different Christian missions within the Archdiocese of Miami, especially the evangelical missions of the Claritian sisters.

The band was promoted by several well known Catholic religious leaders, among them, Father Ricardo Castellanos, who through the Ministry Verbo y Vida helped Rokka with its first and only production, Proyecto I. Also, they found support in Father Federico Capdepón, who invited them to be part of his television program featured on Univisión, En Busca de la Felicidad (In Search of Happiness).

It has been ten years since Rokka's disappearance. Now Sara has decided to continue delivering her message of hope and love for God as a soloist.
