Fresh Day Music has been busy! We have been travelling and most recently just returned from a family wedding in New York after putting nearly 2000 miles under our belts in three days! We're excited about the new ventures we're jumping into including our new addition to the Fresh Day Music vehicle fleet, a 40 foot MCI Charter bus. We are in the process of converting this bus into a touring coach that we can live in full-time while touring and sharing purpose-filled music and multimedia around the country. Follow our progress by clicking the link to the right titled: "Our Bus Project".

Scott Michael Bennett teamed up with Camille Aragones on December 12, 2009 to share a special Christmas Musical Celebration entitled "Noel". Both passionate singers, Scott & Camille shared both new and fresh Christmas sounds as well as a generous helping of Christmas classics in a 2 hour concert that included live instrumentation and even a Christmas Carol Sing-along!

Camille Aragones is a young, passionate vocalist with a heart for Jesus and His people. Visit her website:

Fresh Day Music hit the desert southwest with both boots running! After three days of driving from Michigan to Arizona, the tour began with a stop at Camelback SDA church Phoenix, AZ Tuesday evening where Scott was able to share some meaningful songs to a special group of people being baptized during the Youth For Jesus baptismal service and the conclusion of their evangelistic meetings. Doug Batchelor, president and speaker for Amazing Facts, was the speaker for the night. You can learn more about Amazing Facts by clicking here.

Next stop was Sabbath at the Camelback church with two special numbers in the morning and a full concert in the afternoon. After a hot Saturday in Phoenix, Scott and Heather were grateful for the 2 hour drive to Tucson that night where the temperature averages 10 degrees cooler. Sunday morning brought another series of special songs at Vista del la Montana United Methodist Church in Tucson and then a full afternoon concert at Vista. Many warm friendships were forged during our time at Vista and they hope to sing there again.

Monday, Scott and Heather received a much-needed break before preparing for the National ASI convention on Tuesday. They assisted Dane and Vicki Griffin with the Lifestyle Matters and Balance Magazine health booth at the Phoenix Convention Center from Wednesday through Friday. On Saturday, Scott sang a special song for the morning service at the main auditorium before once again heading to Tucson to share a short song for the Midvale Park church's morning service. Then a concert that evening at Midvale, then another 2 hour drive to Phoenix to tear down the booth at the convention center. After completion of loading the cargo van with booth materials, the couple drove back to Tucson and arrived around 3 am, grabbed a few hours of much-needed sleep and arrived at 7 am at Christ's Lutheran Church of the Risen Savior in Green Valley ready to share three more songs for their morning service. Another afternoon concert was given and many people were blessed!

Thursday the couple drove from Tucson to Sacramento, California to sing for the main service and give a full evening concert at Sacramento Central SDA Church where Doug Batchelor is the Senior pastor. You can learn more about Pr. Doug by clicking here. The next morning on Sunday, they drove to San Francisco to sing at a close friend, Jamie Carlson's, wedding. After singing a couple of numbers at the wedding and enjoying the beautiful ceremony, the duo drove back to Tucson through the night, arriving at 5 am the next morning. Scott recalls watching the sun set as he drove, and then watching it rise before they arrived back in Tucson. "The tour was amazing", Scott recalls "we met and became close to so many people, and we've had so many invitations to return and sing at other churches and events in the area...we'll be back!" And they certainly will. Even now, a new and even fuller tour is being planned for 2010 which will include stops in Arizona, California, Oregon, and Washington. Visit their tour schedule to see where they will be next.

SCOTT & HEATHER'S WEDDING

Scott and his beautiful fiancee joined in Holy Matrimony on Sunday, September 6, 2009 at the Howard Performing Arts Center in Berrien Springs, Michigan. The service was conducted by a close friend, Pr. Jim Mitcheff and Family and friends from literally all over the globe attended this precious event in their lives.

Many of you who have followed Scott's ministry and attended concerts have sent us beautiful cards and shared meaningful encouragement and congratulations to Scott & Heather and they would like to say that they have read every word and contemplate every meaningful thought or blessing they receive from so many of you. Please know that all of your kind words during this exciting time in their lives is so much appreciated by them!

They took a short hiatus from concert tours for the entire month of September as they honeymooned in Switzerland, Germany, France, and Austria. They are looking forward to their bright future as they strive to touch the lives of people everywhere with music. You can get a peek at their wedding and honeymoon by viewing their wedding website: http://www.scottlovesheather.com/

A MIRACLE ON WHEELS

FreshDay Music has needed a motorhome for several months. Recent requests to share our inspirational concerts have come in from all over the country and because we currently live in Southwest Michigan, we have been limited to regionally local mini-tours. We both have prayed for a "home on wheels" that we could use to live in fulltime and tour the country, inspiring more and more individuals to connect with their Creator and in turn connect with people who don't yet know Him.

We are excited to share that those prayers have been answered! Through a series of God-driven events over the last two weeks, we have purchased an MCI-9 motorcoach in an effort to make our touring dream a reality. Many individuals have been asking us how they can help our ministry. Several of you have requested we accept monthly donations to the ministry. In every case, we have politely turned down those requests because God has supplied everything we needed. At this point, we believe that He may be giving us a chance to include you in his efforts to spread these inspiring messages in song. In light of this, we are dedicating a page solely to our coach and the progress we make on it. It is a bus only. A conversion needs to be made to put it on the road as a motorhome. If you are interested in following the progress of this project or would like to find out how you can help us, please click here.

UPPER PENINSULA TOURS

Scott & Heather have traveled several times to Michigan's north and Upper Peninsula to give concerts. They have been well-received by Traverse City, Escanaba, Houghton, Gaylord, Petoskey, and Alpena in recent weeks. Michigan's north and U.P. are beautiful destinations with a gorgeous blend of pine and deciduous forests as well as some open grassland. In the winter, crisp cold and fresh snow add to the seasonal beauty.

These areas boast large expanses of forest that strech for miles in any direction. Surrounded by the largest bodies of freshwater, the U.P. is especially rural and one can drive for hours without seeing another vehicle. The U.P. Also has several of Michigan's most beautiful water falls and rock outcroppings. Black bear, gray wolf, and even a rare mountain lion are seen in the U.P. As well as elk and plenty of white-tailed deer. If you haven't visited Michigan's Upper Peninsula, we recommend a trip!

Scott's latest concert was held at a large church campmeeting held in Cedar Lake, Michigan. Nearly 5,000 people attended this year and Scott was able to share a short concert with them Friday night as well as sing for the teens in Teen Tent and young adults in Youth Tent. The highlight of Friday night's concert was when Scott and his friend Camille Aragones www.camillearagones.com sang the duet "The Prayer" together on stage. Scott and Camille have a vocal chemistry that inspires.

Scott was able to share several songs with his audience including his classically inspired version of "The Lord's Prayer" as well as "God Gave Me Back" at the piano. On Saturday, the campmeeting Teen Tent was the stage as Scott and Camille teamed up to provide a moving and deeply spiritual mini-concert for over 50 teens and adults.

Later in the evening Scott and Camille once again shared their vocal passion with nearly 100 young adults in the Youth Tent singing "The Prayer" and "God Gave Me Back". The powerful songs combined with a powerful message that evening led to the close of Campmeeting 2009. The night ended with a CD signing where many shared that they were deeply moved by the music Scott and Camille shared over the weekend.

The opportunity to share our music with "House of Prayer" at Forest Lake Church was not only a great chance to meet many of you from this congregation, but was incredibly uplifting for us! We want to thank all of you who shared many kind words with us. We plan on sharing again next week before we return to Michigan.
