Nathan and Pam heavener, OK 918-571-3760
God delivered me from alcohol and tobacco when I was saved but I have struggled with other things since becoming a Christian. I believe that God is using this ministry to set many people free from addictions and bad behaviors and to lead many to be saved from sin and self through salvation in Jesus Christ alone! I am happy to be a partner in this ministry. Nathan
So many people close to me have said that they have seen a difference in the way I react since I have learned about Set Free Prayer Ministry. I am friendlier and I am able to handle daily upsets and not be so mad. I am happy to be a part of this ministry with my husband. Pam
