About
OUR PURPOSE
They will soar on wings like eagles...
Isaiah 40:31
Our Why
We exist to serve foster children. It’s that simple. Children who cannot be with their biological families due to various reasons deserve a safe, stable, and nurturing environment. Foster care can be a turning point in a child’s life – showing them that they matter, they are cared for, and that they have a future worth building.
-
An ANCHOR to hold on to so that they may feel safe and loved
-
A COMPASS that will guide their decisions towards the right path for their life
-
The HOPE we have for them and the HOPE of the cross delivers strength for a better tomorrow
An Anchor
A Compass
And Hope
A Message from Dr. John Waits

Reflect with me for a moment on a simple question. Where would you be today if it were not for the influence and guidance of your parents? Or possibly your most influential mentor, if not a parent. I know the answer for me.
Freedom Farm exists to be a safe haven for abused, abandoned and neglected children who unfortunately did not receive what the majority of us did---loving parents. Our goal is to provide them a home with parents to guide them into mature, responsible adults. This home will be located in a community of homes on a farm which strengthens and encourages each other.
We hope to provide them with three things which all children need for success---an anchor, a compass and a cross---an anchor for security, a compass for direction and a cross for hope. With these three things they can face life’s challenges with courage and confidence…and then pass it on to the next generation. I pray you will join us in this important effort.

A Message from Weldon Cole
Board Chair
Weldon Cole
Those of us who were raised by two parents who loved and guided us into adulthood were so richly blessed. But what about the abused, abandoned or neglected children? What hope do they have? They, like all other kids, just need an opportunity.
Our mission at Freedom Farm is to provide the environment where they can soar, reach their God given potential.
We plan a community of homes, each having six children and two loving parents nurturing them emotionally, intellectually, physically and spiritually. I know you will want to help provide this setting where some of our lost kids can thrive. Whether you can fund a home, sponsor a kid, buy a garden bench or just give a few dollars, it’s going to take us all. I know we can count on you.
It’s for our kids!
