Our Daybreak Annual Spring Gala is coming up soon. Please join us for this important evening as we celebrate God’s continued faithfulness to the work of Daybreak LifeCare Center. On Thursday April 10th, at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center, we will come together to support the important life saving work carried out by Daybreak every day. Every ticket, every donation, and every moment spent at this event directly helps the women and men facing unexpected pregnancies in our community.

This is more than just a gala—it’s a chance to be part of something bigger. Enjoy an elegant evening, an inspiring keynote address featuring Dr. Neil C. Stewart of First Presbyterian Church in Columbia. In addition to the keynote address, we will have a few brief updates from community leaders on the state of the prolife movement here in South Carolina as well as powerful testimonies from those whose lives have been transformed by your generosity.

Your presence matters to us and our clients. When we come together, we create change that lasts far beyond this one night.

Please join us for this important event and be a part of the new day dawning at Daybreak!

For Life,

Brennan Aschleman

Executive Director

Dr. Neil C. Stewart, Daybreak's 2025 gala keynote speaker, grew up in Northern Ireland during the Troubles and came to faith as a teenager through the witness of high school friends. He studied medicine at the Queen’s University of Belfast, where he met and married Catherine Jane Johnson.

In his final year of medical school, Neil was awarded the Ulster Hospital Gold Medal for his studies in medicine, general and orthopedic surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics, and gynecology. He was elected a member of the Royal College of Pediatrics and Child Health in 1997. As a pediatrician, Neil served in the historic Royal Belfast Hospital for Sick Children.

Sensing a call to ministry, Neil and his family moved to Jackson, Mississippi, where he graduated from the Master of Divinity program at RTS, Jackson in 2002. As a pastor, he has served as the Senior Minister of the Second Presbyterian Church of Yazoo City, Mississippi (2002-2006), Kirk O’ the Isles Presbyterian Church, Savannah, Georgia (2006-2016), and Christ Covenant Church ARP, Greensboro, North Carolina (2016-2023) and now serves as the Senior Minister at First Presbyterian Church in Columbia, South Carolina at 1324 Marion Street, Columbia SC 29201.
