CHARLOTTE — Unbound, a ministry focused on empowering people to reclaim their true identity in Christ as sons and daughters of the Father, will host five training sessions beginning Thursday, Sept. 8.

Unbound aims to equip people throughout the world to take hold of the freedom that they have been given in Jesus Christ, and to help others do the same. The Unbound model is a ministry of Heart of the Father, a deliverance ministry based in Ardmore, Pa., led by Neal and Janet Lozano. It is an inspired model of healing prayer that guides a person in responding to the Gospel and opening their heart more fully to Jesus, through “five keys”: faith and repentance, forgiveness, renunciation, taking authority and receiving the blessings of the Father.

Facilitators are needed to lead people through the “five keys” of the Unbound model. Prayer warriors are also needed to provide prayer support for both the individual and the session leader during the healing session.

Unbound equips local churches/ministries to pray effectively for the spiritual and emotional freedom of others. It is a non-confrontational model which focuses on the love, mercy, healing and forgiveness found in Jesus Christ.

Participation in the training requires participants to obtain a letter from their pastor stating they have permission to participate in all training activities regarding Unbound Charlotte ministry/outreach. They are also asked to order and read “Unbound, A Practical Guide to Deliverance” by Neal Lozano, during the five week training. Book available on Amazon or Heart of the Fathers Ministries, Ardmore, Pa.

Five training sessions will be held: Sept. 8 and 22, Oct. 6 and 20, and Nov. 3. Daytime sessions will be 1-3 p.m. at the Diocese of Charlotte Pastoral Center at 1123 S. Church St. in Charlotte. Evening sessions will be 6-8 p.m. at The Farm at 4029 Mintwood Drive, Mint Hill. You must attend all five sessions.

Cost is $20 per person. Clergy may attend for free. Applications are available at www.unboundchltnc.org. For details, contact Julie Jahn, ministry leader, at 704-560-9202 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
