Freedom Session is a Christ-centered 12 Step program that will take you on a journey towards the freedom and healing that Jesus died to give you and you’ve always hoped was possible for you. It is a safe place, where you will get to know God more intimately as you get to know yourself more. The possibilities of what Jesus wants to do for you are limitless. This program is for those of us who struggle with hurts, habits and hang-ups, it is for people who‘ve been wounded in their childhood and /or their significant relationships.
The following list of addictions and issues are examples of some of the areas that could be dealt with through this program: co-dependency issues, self-worth issues, control issues, perfectionism, unforgiveness, the scars of divorce, betrayal, abortion trauma, homosexuality, anger issues, gambling, eating disorders, frozen emotions, alcohol, chemical or sexual addiction, those who are married to alcoholics/addicts, physical abuse and just plain old hurts.
The program spans 9 months with 3, three month segments. Each evening is set up in two segments the first being a large group time where we watch a DVD teaching by Pastor Ken Dyck and his wife Bonnie Dyck. We will then break up into gender specific small groups sharing/discussing our homework. Our time together is covered by a participation commitment where confidentiality is essential.

Freedom Session does not replace the need for counselling or medications but could be in addition to, in order to bring healing and wholeness into your life. There is no shame in attending this program, all of us are/or have been broken to some extent until Jesus met us in our need. There is also no judgement placed on anyone, no one addiction or issue is any worse than any other. “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.” Psalm 51:17 (ESV)
