Free family event coming Tuesday to Newton

Freedom for Youth Ministries will host Freedom Quest from 5:30 to 7 p.m. June 19 at Maytag Park in Newton. It is a free family event with crafts, games, prizes, food and music.

The evening also includes the gospel message of Jesus through a variety of fun activities. Freedom Quest is a traveling ministry event scheduled to be in Newton, Boone, Jefferson, Chariton, Greenfield, Creston and Albia this summer.

“We are seeking to serve the youth in these communities,” Freedom for Youth’s statewide coordinator said. “Freedom Quest is really the means to start building relationships and making connections in communities and showing our hearts for youth to these communities.”

Freedom for Youth Ministries launches youth centers throughout the state of Iowa, and the ministry is gearing up to start a center in Newton.

“Above all else, the kids can expect to have a fun time.”

According to Mullen, Freedom Quest is, “A place for all walks of life to come and just be loved on and learn about Jesus.”
