Freedom Foursquare Outreach Ministry
Just As We Are

Since that first visit God has allowed me to lead over 300 inmates to Jesus.  I have counseled with over 2,000 inmates and not quite as many of their family members.  Our office at CCDC will distribute over 4,500 bibles in one year's time. We will also distribute 1,500 copies of Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren, and more than 5000 pieces of literature, written by such authors as Kenneth Copeland, Merlin Carothers and Billy Graham. Every Christmas our Chaplains' office at CCDC will purchase and distribute approximately 4,000 Christian based Christmas cards to inmates (two per inmate request). The inmate writes their message in the card, returns it to us and we buy the stamps and mail the cards to families across the country. We estimate that with this one project we will share the gospel with at least 12,000 deeply emotionally concerned family members during one of our most celebrated holidays, the birth of Jesus Christ. 

I am forever grateful to have Deacon Bonnie Polley from Christ Episcopal Church and her 25 years as Chaplain, as my mentor at CCDC. Through her dedication and hard work she has planted, fed and watered the harvest field at CCDC and lives will forever be changed. I am honored to follow in her footsteps to experience the fruit of her labor.

Within the walls of CCDC, I personally will share the gospel at 12 to 14 Simple Church Services (bible studies) a week, and we also oversee an additional 35 services weekly. God’s hand is moving mightily; where there has been hopelessness, He gives Hope freely and generously.

In November of 2007, as God continued to expand the outreach ministry at CCDC, we merged Freedom Foursquare with another foursquare church, Grapevine Fellowship. Grapevine had their Food Bank up and running when we joined forces with them, and Freedom Outreach was working to help develop other Food Banks in the city of Las Vegas. 

Another non-profit organization, ironically called Three Square, opened their doors to all the faith based and non-profit organizations in Las Vegas with their vision to eliminate hunger in this city, based on the premise of three square meals a day. Joining all the needs and contacts of  Freedom Outreach with the Food Bank at Grapevine, the distribution has quadrupled in just 4 months.  

Three Square has given over 1,700,000 (1.7 Million) pounds of food in just five months.  They are able to release this food at a handling charge of just $0.09 per pound.  We can purchase one ton of food at a cost of $180.00.  This does not count the perishables such as produce and breads that they give us at no charge!
