With a new tour comes new travelers! New Life Drama Company welcomes newbies Tim McMeen from Tennessee, Caleb Hauber from South Dakota, Emily Meadows from Illinois, Josh Smith from South Carolina, Ashley Eymard from Louisianna, Eric Johnson from Tennessee, and Zach Stallings from Florida. Find out more about these new students on our Cast Page. If you know someone that might be interested in joining NLDC full time, contact us at admissions@nldc.com.
With the arrival of the new comes the departure of the old, and NLDC is sad to have several students leave their ranks, but we are excited to see where God takes these men and women of God. With that said we say goodbye to travelers Nathan Sheets, Joelle Shenk, Hannah Megill and Jessica Hiner.

I have learned some things are better left unsaid.
I have learned that the best way to show love is to live my words, to mean what I say, and say what I mean.
I have learned that chocolate can almost always make a bad day better.
