What Other's Are Saying...

“Julie has been used of God to build his kingdom in northwest Indiana. I have seen Julie lead saints and the churches to pray for our local pastors and churches. I believe that God has answered those prayers specifically in seeing more people come to him, pastors being better shepherds, and the church being the beautiful bride of Christ. I believe her efforts have truly moved with God’s heart and hands and have resulted in His Glory!

Randy has served excellently and blessed many churches by integrating the heart of worship with the technology of worship. His integrity in this allows churches to pursue the best technological means to preach the word and worship the living God, all in ways consistent with the unity of the body of Christ and the truth of God’s word.

Personally, I have been blessed by their servanthood and their friendship, and I thank God for them.”

Tony Yingst,
Pastor of Worship Development,
Family Bible Church, Portage, Indiana




"I wholeheartedly endorse the ministry of Freedom Voices. Their ministry has been a great support to the coordinated efforts of the churches and para-church ministries in Porter County. Their emphasis on prayer and servant leadership is inspirational and I see God using it to expand the Kingdom of God in our communities."

Sincerely,
Pastor Mike Sutton,
President of the Valparaiso Christian Ministerial Association
Pastor of Adult Ministries-Liberty Bible Church

"Julie Hayden called the church one day about 3 years ago wanting to know the name of our Pastor so that her ministry could be praying for him. I was so blessed knowing that there were people out there praying for the local Pastors. Then I learned of the heart that she has for the city of Portage and I was drawn to this in a mighty way. She spoke at a special woman’s meeting we had – I had not given her any information, just asked her to let the Lord lead her and she did - everything she said ministered in a personal way to the ladies. Randy Hayden ran our Tent Revival in 2007, he set up and ran the sound for all three days through the “DownPour” literally. He was amazing! His spirit was so meek and mild even in the midst of some pretty tough situations (we had several speakers and groups). This couple has an enormous heart for God and His people. I know that if I ask Julie for prayer that she is praying for me and has others praying as well. Oh, and by the way “Have you heard Julie sing?” WOW! There is a special anointing on this couple and I love them with all of my heart - I know that God placed them in our lives for a purpose and I am ever so grateful for this relationship. I could go on and on with stories of how I personally and this church have blessed with these ministries, but I will leave some room for the rest of you."

God Bless!
LuAnn Parrish,
Light of Life Worship Center (a division of White Stone Ministries)




HOPE
"I want to commend Julie Hayden and HOPE for Portage to you. Julie is a tremendous person and a faithful servant of God. For many years now she has been coordinating prayer efforts to uphold and support the leaders of our community, and especially the church leaders. She has been working selflessly and diligently at this task, and I believe God has been working powerfully through this ministry; I know He has blessed me tremendously through them.

I want to encourage you to partner with Julie. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. One thing I am quite sure of is this: If it weren't for faithful prayer warriors like Julie, our ministries as pastors would have all but failed. Without water a plant dies, and without prayer a ministry will die. But with much prayer, what could the outcome be? That's why I encourage you to partner with Julie. Make an investment in her ministry, for you can be sure she has already been making a prayerful investment into yours. God bless you."

Love in Him,
Steve Peterson
Former Pastor, Portage Covenant Church
Missionary, International Teams, Costa Rica




"I have known Julie for several years now, mostly as our cities' prayer coordinator. She has a wonderful ministry in rallying and gathering the pastors and churches of our city (over 45 churches) in our need of prayer. Through her individual efforts, God has blessed our collective churches tremendously. Literally hundreds have come to know Jesus Christ as Savior because of her leading in this prayer ministry. Julie is a person who not only talks the talks but walks the walk of a godly Christian woman."

Pastor Randy Forsythe
Grace Baptist Church, Portage, Indiana




"The Community Prayer Group, known as HOPE for Portage stands as a watchman on the wall for the city. Newspaper clippings and personal testimonies have documented answered prayer as this group has joined together to pray for pastors, community concerns, and one another. People from every church in Portage are invited to join in intercession for our city. Julie also uses this as a teaching tool to enlarge our knowledge of effective prayer principles."

Zelba Miller,
Portage Christian Fellowship, Portage, IN




"Julie’s love for the Lord shines out of her eyes every time I see her. Although she spends considerable personal time getting to know the Lord she also spends considerable time sharing Christ’s love in her prayer, worship, and other ministries. Plus she does a great job of raising her kids, loving Randy, and tending to an ailing mother. Her work with the prayer ministry has helped unite churches from all around the area. She is also an adept singer/songwriter. I have a couple of her cd’s and I listen to them when I want to get into an attitude of worship."

Gail Talley,

"Julie has ministered by music in our church many times. Each time has been a blessing with an anointing. We especially are ministered to by her original songs. She even wrote one for our church!"

Zelba Miller,
Portage Christian Fellowship, Portage, IN




TECHNOLOGIES:
"I have known Randy Hayden through various ministry opportunities. Specifically, Randy was able to work with my church with regard to the upgrading of our audio/visual equipment. Through his expertise, we were able to install two projectors, computers, DVD recorder, sound board, speakers, microphones, etc to launch into using media shout in our services, all to enhance our worship of the Lord. But the greatest part of Randy's ministry is the several hours he spent with my A/V techs, before purchase and installation, teaching us that a/v and equipment is a MINISTRY first, and technilogical second. Through his efforts, we have enhanced our worship service one hundred fold. And we were able to do it within a very reasonable budget. I would recommend Randy Hayden for all your a/v needs because he is so knowledgable about the equipment, he can work within any budget, and he truly puts the Lord first in all that he does."

Pastor Randy Forsythe
Grace Baptist Church, Portage, Indiana




"It has been a great privilege to work with Randy and Julie in the past several years. Portage Community Theatre is grateful to them and the services they offer. They are more than helpful and very professional."

Chad Franks
Producer, Portage Community Theater Group




"I can heartily recommend Freedom Voices and Randy Hayden for all your sound needs. As a former Supervisor of Randy's work, I can tell you his expertise is sandwiched with ministry experience and consideration for budgets and practical results. Both he and Julie's commitment to the Lord and their personal testimonies are beyond reproach. You will be blessed by them and have your ministry and worship experience enhanced."

Gratefully,
Ted Palpant
Former Missionary
President, Palpant Industries




I have been acquainted with Randy and Julie Hayden for eight or nine years. They have both been great friends to me and my wife. Randy has a good mix of skills and character traits. First of all he loves the Lord and wants to impact his community for Christ. That motivation is behind his career decisions and how he carries them out. He left a job making considerably more money because he felt he would be more effective for the Lord serving churches around the area. Randy is also a man of integrity. In the times I have been around him I’ve never seen him lie or go back on his word. Randy is skilled in sound and electrical work. He is thorough in the way he installs and creative in finding better ways to do the job. Randy sees the importance of unity between the sound crews and the worship team. I don’t know of anyone else who sees the big picture like this. Often in churches the sound guys are considered the grunts and the worship team is considered the big show. In truth they need to love and appreciate each other. Every church Randy has attended he gathers a committed loyal group of sound crew and worship crew around him, and they usually stay involved for years at a time."

Tom Underwood
Member, Liberty Bible Church, Chesterton, IN




"Our church has benefited many times by Randy's generous efforts and knowledge in working with our sound system."
