About Us
History
Run Free Counselling Centre (RFCC) is a not-for-profit organization, incorporated on March 26, 2019, and is run by a volunteer board. RFCC officially opened its doors to clients in September 2019.
The vision to set up a Biblically based counselling centre came through discussions by the Board of Directors of Run Free Ministries Association. Run Free Ministries was founded in 2006, by Psychologist, Graham Bretherick, who served the local and international church through counselling services and training.
Much appreciation goes to our community, who grasped the vision of setting up a Biblically based counselling centre, and gave invaluable support through gifts of time, prayer, and finances.
Throughout the process, we were continually reminded of Psalm 127:1 (ESV)
“Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.”
Praise be to God, who blessed the vision and the work, and enabled its fruition!
We welcome you to join us on this journey to see the people of Lethbridge and surrounding communities RUN FREE!
Vision
Our vision is to provide the community of Lethbridge with spiritual, emotional, relational, and physical health through restoration of conflicts and, where possible, reconciliation between God and man and human relationships. It is our belief that emotional and spiritual health leads to relational and physical health.
We believe that the counselling process is a valuable tool to facilitate and experience the reality of our vision statement.
