The new mission church plant of New Day Church Kansas City began with worship on Sunday, September 18, 2011. Following the leadership of the Holy Spirit, we have identified quality, gifted leaders within our congregation to oversee the ministries of our church. God has brought together a wise, spiritually mature team of residential, worshiping members of New Day Church Kansas City to form our Board of Directors. Assisting the Board is two ordained Pastors outside our church fellowship that provide additional accountability, and creative thought in strengthening the ministry of NDCKC. Pray for wisdom for these leaders.
