"I came to know Tod in 1999 when he was confined – physically, that is, but not spiritually. He was busy working for the Lord Jesus in the print shop as an inmate at Luther Luckett. It was evident that Tod was energetic, outgoing, and caring. He also had a vision of a ministry to be established once he was on the outside. Now that ministry is being fulfilled. Tod is genuine, and he is an overcomer in Christ Jesus. He has been where many others are - struggling with the temptations and consequences of drugs, fast-money, and violence. And he knows first-hand that there is a way through and out. He can lead others because he understands. He is effective because he shows others that Jesus is The Way. He walks the talk. We thank our Lord God for Tod, and are proud to support this ministry."

"Keep up your service Tod you are a BLESSING to many!!!"

I wanted to thank you for the impact you are making for the city of Louisville in your ministry to the Chickasaw neighborhood. Your vision impacts the children in the Chickasaw community at an early age. This education gives them opportunities to expand their options as they grow older, making an impact for future generations here in Louisville. Your love and care for this community is evident to everyone that supports you as well as the citizens that live in the Chickasaw community. You can count on us to help you in this ministry to make a positive impact in a city that needs a positive light in a violent period of our city’s history. Please let us know how we can continue to contribute to your ministry to Chickasaw.

"I would like to take this time to praise and show gratitude to the New Day Ministries. We have been blessed this year with beautiful bikes for our beautiful 6 children, Christmas wish list gifts, and winter coats for our 6 children. I can't say how much we appreciate the help of those who believe in Jesus Christ. For He has brought all of us together by some miracle. We just moved from Florida trying to adjust to change and the environment. And we have been blessed to be introduced to Tod and New Day Ministries. God Bless you all. Amen."

"Thank you for your support! My mother and I were struggling to pay a bill this month and our power was on track to being shut off. If we hadn’t received assistance from NDM, we would’ve had no power in our home. Thank you for blessing my family and helping in our time of need.
May God continuously bless you all!"

I was walking out of my house to go get my kids some food when I was greeted by Mr. Tod, Mrs. Dee and the rest of the individuals participating in
the love walk. I listened to what they had to say and also shared some struggles that I was having in my life after losing my sister and all three of her children in a car accident. They prayed with me and for me and put me in a feeling of ease. They gifted me with gift cards to pay for my kids food.

A few day later I got a text from Mr. Tod saying that just like he promised me a few days before that he was going to reach out and connect with me.
He asked me my struggles and I informed him that due to some unforeseen circumstances we had fallen behind on my sons school tuition and wasn’t
sure if he would be able to finish or return next year, Mr. Tod told me that New Day Ministries was paying $500 towards my sons tuition and would
also try to connect with some other people to help out as well. When I say I was beyond floored as I cried tears of joy!!

In my life I have noticed a lot of churches/people claiming to be of God and walk in his light while promising help and outreach but it is a false hope most times. But on this love walk my heart was changed, my belief was restored and the moment Mr. Tod hugged me I knew he had an anointed heart. All I was going to get food for my babies and my life was changed. I appreciate every single last person that was involved with that walk that day, that walk changed my perception of reality forever and I am eternally grateful!!
