Bring your lunch ... Feed your mind!

Bring your lunch ... Feed your mind!

Join us January 29th for an unforgettable musical hour that promises to be both inspiring and transformative as we delve into the incredible work of Lost Voices.

Mike Ball’s group of professional singer-songwriters utilize their gifts to bring hope and healing to young survivors of abuse, neglect, and violence, crafting a safe haven for expression through therapeutic songwriting interventions.

Lost Voices has made a significant impact across various facilities in Michigan, including Vista Maria, Wedgwood Christian Services, Oakland Children’s Village, and the Methodist Children’s Home Society, empowering countless teens to reclaim their voices and share their stories.

With Mike and his dedicated team, thousands of kids have discovered the strength within themselves to confront their traumas and express their deepest feelings through original songs in a non-judgmental atmosphere.

It’s an opportunity not to be missed—come and witness the magic of music that fosters healing and connection in our community!
