Who we are:
Total Freedom New York is a residential, faith-based alternative to addiction
treatment. It was established in 2012 under the ministerial umbrella of Freedom
Fellowship; with the intention of helping men and woman heal and reclaim their
lives from destructive lifestyles. Our focus is on promoting balance of spirit, mind,
and body through a lifestyle transformation. Working through each of the various
phases people will transition into a more stable and productive life.
Total Freedom is a nine-month residential commitment followed by 12-months of
proven accountability off campus. The first four to six months is spent in classroom
and in volunteer work. For the remaining months you will enter back into the work force.
Upon completion of nine months you can choose to remain on campus and stay
accountable to this ministry or you can move on and remain accountable to another
ministry.
For the first few months you will go through a ministry school of the Spirit with daily
quizzes and a final exam. You will also go through a healing process which deals with
issues from your past, and a deliverance session. We gather together every night for
groups, bible study or worship; you are expected to be there. You must be able to read
and write English well and be willing to teach what you learn. You will also be expected
to be productive in the program in one or more of the following areas: housekeeping,
farm & garden, yard, building & repair, kitchen and various projects designed to earn
income to support the ministry.
We are a Spirit-filled ministry. We believe in the baptism of the Spirit, laying hands on
people while praying, praying in tongues, casting out demons, teaching the truths in the
Word of God, and actively praising and worshipping the Lord and you will be trained to
do the same.
The cost of the program is $125 per week. We appreciate financial assistance from family
and loved ones; however, we don’t allow lack of funds to determine eligibility. If
necessary, we will assist you in getting food stamps, etc. No personal money is allowed
while in the first phase of the program.
Admission to the program is based on your willingness to make a 100% commitment of
your life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Without that total commitment, there can be no
lasting or genuine change in your life, and it provides the foundation for all training and
instruction received in this program. Applications will be carefully screened to determine
eligibility. The interviews will then be arranged by appointment and held at the facility in
Darien Center, NY.
