Message from Pastor Lamb

Founded in October of 1995 on the principles and promises of God’s Word, Freedom is “A Church for All People”. A place where lives are touched, hearts are encouraged and new beginnings are possible. I hope that you will visit with us soon.

Sincerely,

Anthony Lamb, Pastor
