Freedom Church Ministries & Outreach For those who know that God has called them to preach in some way or format. A study of receiving and understanding the deep things of God and the demonstration of His will on the streets. These people will be responsible for their own expenses and will be expected to do street ministering in hospitals and retail places and any place that will let us. Also, preaching will be required and a submission to criticism by peers. We will meet twice a month on Saturday mornings and after some time learning of God's will and how to operate in it, will go to the streets and places to demonstrate what has been learned. A great deal of reading and a steadfast prayer life is required. This class is not for volunteers, but for those hand-picked by the Pastor. Sound & Tape Ministry This ministry operates the sound system during services. Copies of recordings are made available following services. This ministry also keeps a library of tapes for all to use.

Calling the Pastor activates the Prayer chain and he will in turn call the next individual on the list. If this person can not be reached than he goes to the next person. Once a person has been contacted, they are responsible for contacting the next available individual on the list and encouraging them to pray.

Nursery Ministry The nursery ministry is a group of volunteers (normally parents of children who stay in the nursery) who care for the children during Sunday morning and evening services. The leader of this group is responsible for making a list of nursery workers and the days they are requested to serve. It is the volunteer's responsibility to become aware of the day they are to be in the nursery and, it they can not be there, to swap with another individual.
Day: Sunday Missionary Aid A group consisting of the Pastor and other leading men in the Church. This group reviews requests for missionary financial aid and other support requests and makes recommendations to the Church. The group has a Chairperson who encourages the building up of the Saints so they are encouraged to seek God's calling in their lives. This calling may include becoming a pastor, evangelist or missionary.
Day: Biannual meeting are recommended Youth Ministry Description: Recognizing that the future of the Church will be shaped and determined by those who follow us in the years to come Freedom Church is committed to an ongoing ministry to Youth. We recognize that Youth are different from adults. Their music language perceptions and energy level is often vastly different from that of Adults. Therefore, while they serve the same Lord as adults we encourage them to express their love and service in their own unique and distinct way. In years to come the Church will not and should not be the same as it is now. Like our Youth it should be growing and maturing. Therefore we encourage our Youth to hold on to those traditions and ways which are good but also to walk in the freedom to hear God in bringing forth new things for the Church and the Kingdom. (Matt. 13:52, I Thess 5:21)
