My name is Kathy Costello. I am a singer & ventriloquist. My husband and I built Once Upon A Time Gardens in our back yard in 2005 and we’ve been blessed and privileged to have had thousands of guests celebrate special occasions here over the years!
In the late 1990’s, after dedicating my life to God, Billy was born! An 8 year old little boy with a silly nose, he has a bully at school and other problems that we address. For two years, we performed in churches, Christian schools, campgrounds and even prisons throughout the eastern U.S., but illness and the eventual diagnosis of multiple sclerosis forced me to leave it all behind in 2003. I cried, as I sat at my mother’s dining room table and canceled 2 years’ of bookings.
After losing my husband, Phil, in 2023, I came across Billy in my attic and have been having so much fun bringing him back to life! And now, we bring the TADA message to kids AND adults, with an added powerful testimony of God’s healing power, emotionally and physically! On January 4, 2024, I was miraculously healed of MS and fibromyalgia and have eliminated 7 medications. I am SO blessed to get back to the calling that God has on my life and to do it with renewed energy, a peace that passes understanding and a deeper love for myself and for others than I have ever known! How I would have loved to hear someone tell me when I was younger that God made me unique, valuable and AMAZING!
Prov 31:25 ‘She is clothed in strength and wisdom and she LAUGHS without fear of the future’ is the scripture God gave me as I faced a new year in 2024 as a widow. And I am seeing it come to fruition!
I love to speak to the child in us all! God is healing me constantly from growing up being bullied and put down by my own father. I struggled with issues of feeling so unworthy and unloved. We ALL need to know the power of God in our lives and what we are worth as His children. And my desire is to reach children who are faced with bullying and make them aware of who they are in Christ and how God can use them and their gifts to love and to reach others.
Programs include lots of music, fun, & the Gospel of Jesus Christ!
