Josephine Campbell, Director

Josephine Bernadette Campbell came into a
Glorious Salvation Experience with Jesus Christ in 1974. The Impact left me with one Response. God where have you been hiding all my life. From that day I made a promise to God to Always Serve Him. He called me to the
Ministry and through a Dream led me to Freedom City Ministry. My role from God is to Serve in the areas of Healing and Bible Teaching. In turn God Promised to show up in the not too distant future to be the Resource Center for Signs and Wonders. I have the
Strongest sense of Mission to Prepare The
Way for the Lord to come and DISPLAY HIS GLORY MONG US.
