Inviting Michele Denise Michaels to share her soulful voice and uplifting spirit will create a special experience for everyone who attends your next event.
In her signature session, Michele testifies and sings, interweaving moving songs with personal stories relating to blindness, faith and music. Features a live musical performance perfect for prayerful mediation and moments of spiritual contemplation.
Michele lost 98% of her vision at age 9. Rather than accepting her blindness, she insisted on trying to live as a “partially sighted” person. Even as she rose to prominence as a studio session singer in 1990’s London, her blindness caught up with her and she experienced a dramatic fall. In this session, Michele shares the lessons that helped her accept her blindness, exit despair and find God’s redemption and grace through renewed Catholic faith.
Michele says, “One day, I was walking down the street with my cane. Someone walked up to me and said, ‘your parents were cruel to have ever brought you into this world.’ From that moment forward, I decided that the most important thing I could do with my life was to speak up and tell my story.” In this session, Michele shares a pro-life perspective that is unique, distinctively Catholic and pro persons with disabilities.
Working with simple accompaniment, Michele gently awakens audiences with her beautiful singing and pleasant spirit. Perfect for your breakfast conference or early morning session.
The music in the liturgy serves an important role, helping listeners lift their minds and their hearts to the Lord. In this talk, complete with musical demonstrations, Michele instructs Catholic Gospel worship leaders and choir members about how to bring deeper meaning and more authentic expression to their music ministry.
