“But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more…” – Romans 5:20

There is no sin that outweighs the redeeming sacrifice of our Savior. Some of the greatest warriors of God’s Kingdom have come from lives chalked full of sin. Take for example Moses who murdered a man, David who committed adultery, or the Apostle Paul who went on rampages of murdering Christians! All of these men, and others who have walked the path of sin and repentance, truly feel the unfathomable grace of God.

Set Free Ministries volunteers make weekly visits to the jails of India, where they find the brokenhearted, the hard-hearted, and those burdened with loads of sin. They also find Jesus, God’s amazing grace, and in some cases, remarkable hearts of repentance. The teams visit cell by cell with Bible in hand, but also lead large groups of inmates to salvation through special seminars and praise and worship. The head warden reported, “There used to be weekly suicide attempts. Since SFM volunteers have started to share the Gospel in 2003, not one attempt has been made.” What used to be an average of 600 inmates was cut nearly in half to 350. The warden’s explanation, “The men do not return because lives are changed.”

“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” – Matthew 25:40

Set Free Ministries is currently building an addiction recovery center on a newly acquired 20 acre property in the mountains. This center will provide support and freedom to more than 1000 youth struggling with addictions, primarily drugs and alcohol.

Furthermore, Set Free Ministries continues to fund TNT orphanage and Bethel Camping center in this region.

“Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations…teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”
– Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19-20)

In all three of our worldwide offices, the main focus of the ministry is biblical discipleship- teaching others about God’s Truth and how to walk in it.

From the heat of Uganda, to the crowded streets of India, to the busyness of USA, God’s Word remains infallible and absolute. Live in obedience to God’s ways and receive blessing; live contrary to God’s ways and reap the consequences that are sure to come. While the consequences may be hard, sometimes that is what it takes to bring us to our knees.

Free biblical discipleship is offered by hundreds of Set Free Ministries volunteers on a daily basis.

It is difficult to measure how many lives have been affected. SFM makes several trips a year worldwide to conduct teaching seminars about the freedom ministry. At these seminars, pastors and other community leaders gather together to learn further of God’s Word, who in turn go home and teach their churches and communities.

“For I was sick and you looked after me…” – Matthew 25:36

When Jesus walked the earth, He did not have to go far to find the sick; rather, the sick found Him! One of His biggest ministries was healing. His compassionate heart reached out and touched (literally) the blind, lame, diseased, and even dead, to bring complete and miraculous restoration to the body. It is not hard to see that God has a special place in His heart for the sick, which is probably why this statement was included in the Matthew 25 passage.

SFM India started doing hospital ministry and a team of volunteers would make the drive to local hospitals where they would disperse two by two to different patients whom they would pray with and encourage through God’s Word.

What started as a small ministry quickly exploded! The hospital staff and patients noticed a tremendous difference in the overall atmosphere of the hospital. After just a few short months, the staff requested that the volunteers continue their visits. As the spiritual and emotional needs of the patients were being ministered to, the ripple effect onto the physical well being was undeniable- SFM India was there to stay!

Today, SFM volunteers continue to make weekly visits to the local hospitals. To the ones who feel alone, there is Christ spending time with them. To the ones who feel hopeless, the sweet sound of God’s truth is read, offering hope beyond measure. To the ones who are unbelievers, trapped in sin and afraid of death, there is Jesus offering His forgiveness and His merciful plan of redemption and salvation. Hundreds of lives have been pledged to Jesus Christ; some as they lie on their very death bed.

The call to care for the sick is heard and met through SFM India volunteers. If this type of ministry touches your heart, please consider joining hands with us- cross races, cross nationalities, cross continents- in the care for the sick and dying.
