Purpose
We exist to glorify God by fulfilling the Great Commission—making Christ-like disciples in the nations.
Mission
We equip believers to live as Spirit-filled disciple-makers—sharing the freedom of Christ, multiplying obedient disciples, and helping form healthy communities of faith.
Vision
A Spirit-led movement of disciple-makers multiplying disciples, planting healthy communities of faith, and bringing the transforming reign of Jesus into homes, towns, and nations.
Strategic Focus for a Movement of Multiplication in Atlantic Canada
Our strategic focus in this season is to see a Spirit-led movement of God across all 43 regions of Atlantic Canada, resulting in 25,000 new believers and 1,000 multiplying disciple-making communities by 2035.
Long Term/ Big Kingdom Dream
Beyond Atlantic Canada…
We pray for and long to see awakening spread across Canada and to the nations—seeing Spirit-filled disciple-makers multiply across generations, forming healthy communities of faith—all for the glory of God.
NOTE: By “movement,” we mean disciple-making reproduction across multiple generations, forming healthy communities of faith that reproduce and expand
Core Values
Extraordinary Prayer – Prayer is our foundation. We depend on God to move through united, multiplying prayer.
Word and Spirit — We trust in the power of God’s Word and the Holy Spirit to reveal truth, form Christlikeness, and transform lives.
Spirit Dependence — God leads the work. He alone draws, saves, sanctifies, and empowers. We follow His leading, not our own plans.
Obedience — We obey Jesus and teach others to do the same, believing obedience is central to discipleship.
Multiplication — We are called not merely to gather disciples, but to multiply disciple-makers who form healthy communities of faith.
Community — We follow Jesus together as a spiritual family. In community we pray, abide, go, witness, and multiply—partnering in God’s mission as people set free and sent out in Christ.
Kingdom Mission — We live sent beyond church walls, extending the Kingdom reign of Christ into homes, towns, and every sphere of life.
Statement of Belief
We believe in one God-the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that the Old and New Testament Scriptures, given by plenary inspiration, contain all truth necessary to faith and Christian living.
We believe that man is born with a fallen nature, and is, therefore, inclined to evil, and that continually.
We believe that the finally impenitent are hopelessly and eternally lost.
We believe that the atonement through Jesus Christ is for the whole human race; and that whosoever repents and believes on the Lord Jesus Christ is justified and regenerated and saved from the dominion of sin.
We believe that believers are to be sanctified wholly, subsequent to regeneration, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe that the Holy Spirit bears witness to the new birth, and also to the entire sanctification of believers.
We believe that our Lord will return, the dead will be raised, and the final judgment will take place.
Lead Pastor:
Rev. Jodi Getson
“The Church was never meant to be a crowd that gathers, but a movement of Spirit-filled disciples who go.”
Hi, I’m Jodi — a pastor, preacher, disciple-maker, and passionate follower of Jesus. I’m happily married to a handsome man (inside and out!), and we’re proud parents of two incredible grown kids.
I believe the Church was never meant to be a gathering of passive attenders, but a movement of Spirit-filled disciples who live sent. My calling as a pastor is not simply to care for a membership, but to equip the saints for the work of ministry—to help ordinary believers become obedient followers of Jesus who can share the gospel, disciple others, and multiply the life of Christ wherever God places them.
Freedom exists to help people encounter Jesus, experience freedom in Him, grow in holy obedience, and be sent into His mission. (Hence our slogan… “Set Free. Sent Out!” Whether online, in homes, in local churches, or in communities around the world, the goal is the same: disciples making disciples, transformed lives transforming places, and the kingdom of God advancing through ordinary people fully surrendered to Jesus.
Global Ministry Pastor:
Rev. Sheri Lynne Martin
Hi, I’m Sheri—a pastor, encourager, connector, and all-around people lover. I’m married to my amazing husband, Robert, a hardworking, adventure-loving outdoorsman. We both enjoy spending time in God’s incredible creation, whether that’s soaking up fresh air or admiring a beautiful sunset.
I love Jesus with my whole heart, and I genuinely love people. Encouraging others, sharing laughter, and helping people experience the hope, freedom, and life-changing grace of God is what truly excites me.
Travelling has always been one of my greatest joys, especially connecting with people from different cultures and backgrounds. When the opportunity came to serve as an online pastor and “travel the airways,” walking alongside brothers and sisters across the nations, I jumped in with joy. It’s a true gift to witness the movement of God—seeing people set free, strengthened in faith, and sent out to live boldly for Him.
Digital Engagement & Communications
Courtney Swan
Hi, I’m Courtney! By day, I’m a Senior Financial Analyst crunching numbers, but my true passion? Loving Jesus with everything I’ve got! I’m also a proud mom of two amazing boys who are my first and most important ministry. They keep me on my toes and remind me daily of God’s grace and calling on my life.
When I’m not working or cheering at school and sports events, you’ll probably find me with my Bible open—I just can’t get enough of God’s Word! About three years ago, God called me back to church and lit a fire in my heart for Jesus that I simply cannot keep to myself. Before that, life was tough, and I was lost and searching. But the day I surrendered my heart to Jesus, His grace, love, and mercy changed everything. That moment sparked a passion to live fully surrendered and to share His love everywhere I go.
This past year, God opened the door for me to serve with Freedom Ministries, and wow—what an honor! My mission is to encourage others to walk closely with Jesus, live in the power of the Holy Spirit, and embrace their God-given purpose. My heart is to serve with humility, share Christ’s love boldly, and help people live a life surrendered and fulfilled in Him—and to see every soul saved.
