Freedom Church was founded in 2003 when a small and diverse group of men and women sharing little beyond a big dream began meeting weekly in a home for prayer and Bible study. From this humble beginning we grew to a weekly Monday night meeting, and later started meeting on Sundays. Two sister churches partnered together to help our young church (which was formerly known as Morning Star Church of G

reater Philadelphia) take root: Morning Star New York in New York City, and Grace Covenant Church in the Greater Washington D.C. In 2006, David Estes, assisted by his wife Kathleen, became the first full-time pastor of Freedom Church. Not only did David and Kathleen help lead Freedom Church to numerical growth and spiritual vitality, but they also assembled an amazingly dynamic music team that is one of the signature elements of our church family. In late 2010 David and Kathleen began to sense that it was time to pass the baton of leadership to another young couple in Freedom Church. In June 2011, they answered the call to serve our sister church in Washington D.C., and handed over the leadership of Freedom Church to the current lead pastoral couple, Gabe and Jennifer Bouch. In October of 2011, Freedom Church moved its Sunday morning services to the historic Prince Music Theater, located in the heart of Center City. Freedom Church is an exciting place to be these days. Though God has done much in our short history, our best days are still ahead of us.

What can happen when you simply say yes to God?

Dr. Adelaide Barnes shares her powerful journey of service, obedience, and what’s possible when we step into the mission God places in front of us. And whew… it’s a reminder that God builds something beautiful with surrendered hearts.

“Like living stones, let yourselves be built into a spiritual house…” — 1 Peter 2:5 🪨💛

This Living Stones season isn’t just about what we’re raising — it’s about who we’re becoming.

Our prayer is that her story encourages your heart and helps you discern how God may be inviting you to step forward in this season.

So here’s the question: What is your yes?
How is God calling you to be a living stone?

Pray. Lean in. Participate. Let’s build together. 🏠✨

Our nation has been heavy these past few weeks. Our hearts have been heavy but also full of prayer as we have lifted these cities to the Lord.

Please pray for our city, Philadelphia, and continue to pray for D.C. and L.A. The pain from each event is far from over. May God surround our communities and all those affected with His comfort, peace, and strength during this time.

Let us continue to pray for our nation as a whole, that we may come together in love, unity, and understanding. May His light guide us through the darkness, and may we all find hope in His presence.

Truth about me: I am a sinner
Truth about Him: He has freely given me the gift of salvation through His Son.

That’s Grace.

‘to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us’
Ephesians 1:6-8

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., we thank you for standing up for what is right, fighting for equality and justice, speaking the truth and professing the love of Christ.
In a world that often still feels divided may we remember the great words of Dr. King Jr. and strive to be instruments of love and reconciliation.
