Church Healing Sessions
With extensive training and experience in Critical Incident Stress Debriefing, Rudy leads a group session that allows the participants to talk about "church trauma".
​
Many churches fail to properly address experiences that have caused emotional scars throughout the congregation.
This session will allow opportunity for closure, healing, and restoration.
At the conclusion of the session Rudy and Piper will offer a healing service focused on forgiveness and restoration.
Pastor /Spouse Mentoring
Rudy and Piper have served many churches and faced many complex experiences that most clergy never experience in years of ministry.
This has provided numerous opportunities to help other clergy going through difficult seasons in ministry.
Rudy is available for one on one, confidential, Zoom sessions. This is a safe place to engage in healthy dialogue, share insights, and receive prayer.
Piper is also available to help clergy spouses who find themselves struggling in their ministry setting.

Revival & Healing Services
Rudy is an evangelist and was once compared to a "young Billy Graham" by a church member who found salvation at a Graham Crusade in London in 1956. His Holy Spirit driven passion for the lost to be saved and the church to be renewed is evident in his ministry.
​
Rudy and Piper have been blessed to be the vessels through which God has healed many of God's people. God uses them in a calm and prayerful approach to healing. The Holy Spirit leads them to pray for specific issues and for restoration.

"Rudy Freese has a passion for the Lord Jesus and God’s people. He has a unique gift that enables him to draw out God given desires in a diverse group of people and at the same time set boundaries that allows people with widely divergent views to engage in fruitful dialog. He uses a clearly set out, well established, process that leads people to see common values, establish mission, and set goals. He knows when to press for clarification and when to let an issue rest. His gracious ways lets others rest even when a clear consensus has not yet been reached. He is a man of God with a God given ability to a help groups of people heal where there has been conflict."
~Rev. Tom Trautman Elgin UMC

Philip Smothers, OK
"Rudy and Piper are a gift to churches who need direction and vision. They are engaging not only to the church members as a whole, but are intentional as they relate to each person as an individual. As members entered the building and sat down, Rudy not only greeted them but started meaningful conversations to get to know each member. Rudy and Piper incorporate games and activities to help members think critically and creatively before they dive into a topic. These activities help members to think and reflect upon who they are and how they relate to others. In each part of the seminar, Rudy is pastoral and gentle to each person’s thoughts and opinions. This response is especially valuable when the church members are reflecting on their past and past hurts that the church has experienced. Rudy leads the church members through their past, present, and future as a church. However, he does not hijack their vision and direction with his own thoughts and ideas. Instead, he facilitates discussion, so that the church members can create their own direction and vision together. Any church or leadership team would immensely benefit from Rudy and Piper’s leadership and experience."
~ Pastor Philip Smothers
"I hope when you're invited to come see the progress in the church, you will know how much you rewarded us."

Kim Mizer, OK
"We had Rudy & Piper come to our church for a time of visioning. Rudy brought the message at worship and then we went right into visioning time. The time invested in walking through out past pains, our successes, and looking into our future was time well spent. Rudy kept us engaged with hands on activities but also had us dig deep into what we wanted our church to be known for in future generations to come. My big take away was: are we ready to have God be in every ministry that we do? What does that look like? Rudy didn't answer our questions he guided us to find the answers. I highly recommend Rudy come to your church for visioning and growth."
