Revelations of Freedom Ministries

Statement of Faith

We believe in the Scripture of the Old and New Testaments as verbally inspired by God, and inerrant in the original writings and that they are of supreme and final authority in faith and life.

We believe in one God eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary and is true God and true man.

We believe that man was created in the image of God; that he sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also that spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature, and become sinners in thought, word, and deed.

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him are justified, by faith, on the ground of His shed blood.

We believe in “that blessed hope”, the imminent return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

We believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God.

We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved and the everlasting punishment of the lost.

“Before ROFM, I was lost, and my life had no meaning. Since graduating from ROFM, my life has purpose and I love waking up every morning.”

Core Values

Discipleship

ROFM values discipleship above all else, working under the principle that true healing comes from the redeeming love of Jesus Christ. As part of ROFM’s residential program, our students are offered an abundance of resources to grow and enhance their walk with Christ. Particularly, we offer discipleship training throughout the program that begins with Bible-based classes, groups, and studies, and transitions to the process of re-acclimating into the community and establishing an ongoing culture of support and accountability. This includes establishing a home church and community support group while continuing with ROFM’s program and services.

Community

A large component of ROFM’s program is relationship restoration. While enrolled, students work diligently to heal broken relationships with friends and families, while expanding their base of natural supports. This often includes connecting students to local resources, churches, support groups, and education programs (i.e., certificate trainings, colleges, etc.). Through community relationships and an active board of directors, ROFM supports students in relationship restoration through program graduation as well, frequently connecting students with local job opportunities, community resources (i.e., food banks, clothing barns, etc.), volunteer opportunities, and housing prospects upon program graduation.

Holistic Healing

Ultimately, ROFM desires for students to successfully overcome their addictions and achieve a healthy, self-resilient life. At ROFM, our staff understand that successful recovery requires addressing all aspects of an individual’s life, not just the addiction. While working through the program’s core stages, our staff aid students in traveling through Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. This framework emphasizes that for an individual to reach their full potential, they must first feel secure in physiological needs (i.e., shelter, food, water), followed by safety, then belongingness, and finally, esteem.

Each stage implements new coping skills and strategies for addiction recovery and long-term stability. Specifically, students obtain the necessary supports, values, and skills to rebuild relationships, grow spiritually deeper, improve self-resilience, increase workforce development, and lead a productive life.

ROFM follows the principles of Maslow’s Hierarchy by meeting needs in the following ways:

Physiological

A residential facility that provides food and shelter.

Safety

The facility is fully secured, bringing a sense of physical peace.

Belongingness

A sense of community with other students and mentors, aiming to restore natural supports and build a relationship with Jesus Christ.

Esteem

Connection to volunteer and employment opportunities.

“JESUS CHRIST has changed my life. To continue my walk with Christ at ROFM as an intern has been a blessing. I thank GOD for this program. If you want your life to change, ask JESUS CHRIST into your life as your personal Lord and Savior. Romans 10:9-10 says, ‘…if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.’

The History of ROFM

From Humble Beginnings to a Boundless Future

In 2011, local community members had a God-sized vision to champion freedom from addiction for men in Lancaster County, PA. Revelations of Freedom Ministries was born! After receiving its 501(c)3 status that year, the visionaries searched for an appropriate home for the residential program. However, they were met with difficulty, as many townships were cautious of establishing an addiction recovery program in their neighborhoods. After much perseverance, ROFM secured a residential home in 2012 to host the program and officially began offering services!

Within the first two years of the program, an incredible need was witnessed in the community, leading to a second home being purchased in 2014 to expand the program's capacity to serve individuals. As the years passed, a building was needed that could provide all services on one campus and serve more individuals. ROFM purchased a three-story commercial building in 2018 that was renovated into a fully secured facility and offered the capacity to house up to 26 men in the recovery program, and an additional 23 men through the re-entry services.

In 2019, ROFM established and opened Freedom Thrift, a single-member LLC (disregarded entity), to partially support the growing operations of ROFM. To this day, ROFM and Freedom thrift remain operational in this facility, with the thrift store operating on the first floor, re-entry services and internships operating on the second floor, and the 10-month residential program operating on the third floor.

In its 10 years of operation, ROFM estimates that it has served over 120 men. Today, we continue to see a growing need. ROFM is already pushing the bounds of its newest facility and will soon need more space for its staff and students. Additionally, we are strategically expanding to accommodate the unique needs of our students and provide on-site life coaching and counseling services. ROFM is humbled to be of service for its community, promoting hope, help, and healing for its neighbors.
