Freedom Christian Fellowship

We want to take a minute to let everyone who has supported us know how much we appreciate you your heartfelt prayers and the financial support you have given to us.  We consider this a sacred trust and express our sincerest gratitude to you

2009 was our first year of ministry as a team and was a major year of growth.  More than anything else we felt the Lord establish us in a shared set of values and vision together, even as we touched people with the Gospel.

We began the year with an emphasis on recovery ministry, first in a small house, and eventually even making a personal offer to buy a small apartment complex.   The process of running the house led us all through significant moments of growth and significant revelations about the freedom process.

We have also decided to shift our focus from running a house to an outreach based model which will allow us to work with more people and at the pace which they themselves are ready to grow.   We are still exploring we are currently discussing starting a business and gearing up to move into a facility.

We ministered to a number of different people this year.  Perhaps the highlight of our evangelistic outreach this year when one of the young men in the recovery program reached out to man on the bus who was rolling a joint and brought him to church.  We believe that seeing those we help turn around and reach others for Christ is the true fulfillment of the Gospel.  Many others, including several drug dealers and prostitutes, have not only heard, but had serious encounters with the Gospel through our ministry this year.  One man even turned himself into the police because he came under conviction after we worked with him

Pastoral counseling has emerged as a major part of our ministry and we have been called upon repeatedly to minister to some very difficult cases, including several failing marriages, people hearing voices, and those with lifelong problems.  These experiences have culminated in a book that we plan to self-publish early this year called “Free At Last.”  It is a short guide encapsulating many of the things we have learned this year and which we believe will be a blessing to those who can’t find their way to personal freedom.  We plan to send you, our supporters, a complimentary copy when it is printed.

Although we have had many remarkable encounters, what is most important to us is that we bear fruit which remains as we reach out to a lost generation.   For this reason we rejoice over the two men who stuck it out in the program as we are seeing their lives turn around and they in turn become blessings to others.

Because of your generosity and a conservative spending strategy we start a new year with significant financial resources to expand and continue this mission.  Thank you for being partners with us in the harvest of God.
