“Spirit Voice was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had in my entire life. It was truly touching spirit and feeling one with not just other people but with myself and with God.” ~ Kelley G.
Vince Gowmon, of Spirit Voice and Remembering to Play Events in Vancouver, will return to Victoria to lead us in simple mantras sung in English and Sanskrit (the ancient language of India). The mantras are sung in the style of kirtan, the sacred devotional music tradition originating from India. They are repeated over and over, faster and faster, calling upon sacred energies which serve to remove obstacles, bring us back to the center of our being and into an experience of freedom from the daily chatter of the mind.
Girls Can Be is all about providing girls with the chance to be safe, valued and to have positive choices.
To this end, we are building a safe space for women in the slum of Saki Naka in Mumbai, India. The goal is to develop a social enterprise to sustain fair wages for the women who will produce goods such as aprons, purses and children's items. Profits will provide monthly services, including gynecological visits, family planning sessions, nutritional workshops and a literacy program. In supporting the mothers, we will be enabling their daughters to attend school.
When you educate a girl, she improves her community.

"I'm filled with gratitude for the great evening of singing put on by your group, Spirit Voice. Your gift of song and voice allowed me to heal a part of my heart that has been asking for some attention. Your music also helped me to connect with my voice again so that I could communicate what needed to be communicated in my life. Thank you for these incredible gifts. And thank you to Spirit Voice for being my difference maker." ~ Kirsten W.
