TODAY AT NEW DAY

A NOTE FROM CARE PASTOR CHRIS MASON

Hey New Day Family,

Summer is in full swing! I don’t know about you, but at our house, there has been no rest for the weary. Our daughter, Maddie, has just graduated from High School and will be attending Central Christian College of the Bible this Fall. Our son, Micah, recently received his learners permit and is now navigating the roads of Port Charlotte. Finally, our son, Merrit, just celebrated his 10th Birthday. Life is moving fast. I am blessed, but man, do I feel old!

Here at New Day ministry never stops. Things are indeed moving fast. We have students coming from and going to summer camps. Our Sarasota Campus continues to near its completion. In fact, our staff was up at the Sarasota Campus this week, preparing for final inspections. Would you please be in prayer for these inspections at the end of this week? This has been such a journey, and I am excited to see how God uses Pastor Rylan and his team in ministering to the Sarasota community.

One other area of ministry that I wanted to mention was regarding recovery. You may recall that a couple of months ago, Pastor Rusty asked us as a congregation to make a no-drinking pledge. This struck a nerve with many in our church family. As a result, I am happy to announce that we will be starting an Alcoholics Anonymous open discussion meeting on Monday, July 7, at 5:30 pm. Click here to learn more about this meeting, which will be at our Port Charlotte Campus. For more information on AA, visit aanorthport.org. If you have any additional questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

I hope that despite all the summer activities, you find time to relax and be refreshed. If you are looking for an area to serve, Care Ministry may be a good fit. Don’t hesitate to reach out, and I’ll make sure to get you plugged in. Thank you again for all that you do to make New Day a great place to worship and serve!

Blessings,

Pastor Chris
