" Hello, I am Freddie Filmore, Sr., Pastor
and founder under Jesus Christ of Freedom Ministries Church, Inc.
and my lovely wife and co-founder, Minister Eva Carroll Filmore,
Associate Minister. To this end God has opened the doors for our
Television Broadcast of “A Call to Freedom” which airs
in Iceland on Omega Television, uplinked in 80 nations in Europe,
Africa and the Middle East. We were blessed to minister the Word
of God also in London, England at the invite of a Nigerian Pastor
Adaleke and annually to Iceland. God’s particular mandate
to me is to teach the people to love the Word of God so that whatever
is in the Word they will do and to be an example to the flock over
which God has made us overseers. God’s specific word to me
as the ministry was started was “don’t merchandise His
people”. Therefore I am always mindful that the congregation
and the ones that God adds belong exclusively to Him. We are determined
to be totally submitted to God. "
