Revelations of Freedom Ministries is a 12-18 month residential, faith-based discipleship program. We work with men who are at least 18 years old who are struggling primarily with drug and/or alcohol addictions. Our goal is to help men discover a life of freedom which can only be found in a relationship with Jesus! Our two phase program is located in Blue Ball, Pa.
The Potter’s House operates 3 aftercare houses in the Lancaster area. These two groups, who merged in 2011 into a new organization, provide expanded counseling and discipleship training programs for those getting out of prison. Their goal is to assist and train ex-inmates to become responsible persons in their families, the workplace and communities.
