Program areas at Liberty Ministries

Prison ministry utilizes the services of more than 150 volunteers who visit men and women in prison to teach, train, and mentor inmates. Some of the ongoing programs offered by our prison ministry include: weekly bible studies, one-on-one christian counseling, pre-release classes, and sunday worship services. The prison ministry also includes our lydia bag program for women, our annual christmas bag project for all those incarcerated at the montgomery county correctional facility and our summer camp scholarship program for children of inmates and former inmates.
Thrift stores provide support for our residential and prison ministry, while providing job skills training and employment for the residents of Liberty house and those on work-release while in prison. Our six stores have become a mission field in themselves. They provide employment for over 100 people and offer quality recycled clothing and home furnishings.
Liberty house is our christ-centered male residential facility located in the heart of schwenksville. There are eight dormitory rooms for phase one residents and five apartments for phase two residents and staff. Liberty house can accommodate up to 18 residents. Phase one is an intensive twelve-month discipleship program, designed to equip men for successful reintegration into the community. Programming includes biblically-centered education, counseling, life skills training, and employment. Phase two offers men who have successfully completed phase one the opportunity to reside in an on-site apartment for up to two years, providing them with continued moral support, biblically-centered education, and counseling while learning to live independently.
Ann's house is our christ-centered female residential facility located in green lane. There are five dormitory rooms for a single-phase program administered in a residential house. The program is an intensive twelve-month discipleship program, designed to equip women for successful reintegration into the community.
