Statement of Purpose

The mission of Freedom Farm Ministry is to seek the restoration of men broken by chemical addiction to the point of repentance by introducing them to the person and work of Jesus Christ as He is presented and proclaimed and described in the Bible.

Three-Fold Vision

The Safe House( Arms of Jesus) opened in July 2007 as a temporary residence for those coming out of active addiction as they contemplate and are assessed for potential admission into the Christian recovery center. The Safe House provides immediate safety and assistance in getting ready for a Christian recovery program. The program includes daily Bible study and devotions, nutritious meals, and fellowship with other men in similar circumstances.

Located on several acres of remote farm land in Ashe County North Carolina, the Safe House serves an average of ten men with an additional “house man” who supervises the program. While there is no set length of stay, most residents are able to be accepted into a Christian recovery program such as Faith Home in South Carolina, Hebron Colony in Boone NC, or Bethel Colony of Mercy in Lenoir NC within four to five weeks of entering the Safe House.

Christian Recovery Center (Restoration House) – scheduled to open at a later date. A remote 18-acre mountain center for men seeking recovery from chemical addiction, through intensive Bible study, prayer, worship and fellowship centered in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Founded in 2006, the Transitional Living Center (TLC) is a residential center for those who have completed a Christian recovery program and have a genuine desire to continue to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ, through accountability within a structured residential setting, while being employed in the community. Serving an average of seven men at each location, TLC is located near Boone for convenience in obtaining employment. The average length of stay is six to eight months. During their stay the men have daily morning devotions, attend a local church as a group, have three Bible studies weekly, and are involved in independent Bible study. Men are taught how to manage their money and are expected to pay a minimal weekly fee to cover utilities, telephone, food, and use of vehicles. At the end of their stay it is hoped that each man will have saved sufficient funds to have a fresh start in the world and will have become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ, able to share their hope with others in similar bondage.
