Current Project
Butterflies Chase Me
Inspired by the true interaction of New Life Mission’s CEO and a little girl, Butterflies Chase Me is more than just a movie—it’s a project dedicated to bringing unique awareness to the work, impact, and future of New Life Mission in the Space Coast community while exploring themes of faith, transformation, identity, homelessness, and motherhood.
It’s a heart-warming story of healing and new beginnings.
