And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 

II Timothy 3:15 (KJV)   

“I HAVE A DREAM” 

On November 6, 1976, the first service was held at the Freetown Pentecostal Church, Bro. Fred McCory was residing pastor. Bro. Fred McCory dreamed of a nice church building on the east side of Freetown. On April 24, 1978, Bro. Fred McCory purchased ten lots at 6892 N. Hayes Ave.,  Freetown, IN, with plans to build a new church. Bro. Fred McCory asked his son, Neal McCory, to oversee the building of the new church 

​Bro. Neal McCory was very sick at this time. This was unusual for him because he had always been such a strong man. Finally, he went to the doctor, and he was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis and was prescribed medication. He did feel better, but not well enough to build a church.  

The Lord called his dad, Bro. Fred McCory, home on December 26, 1978. The night before Bro. Fred McCory’s funeral, the Lord healed Bro. Neal McCory. God strengthened him and he picked up the mantle as God called him to be the pastor of the Freetown Pentecostal Church. 


On July 19, 1980, Bro. Neal McCory picked up the dream, and broke ground for our new church. On November 2, 1980, Bro. Fred McCory’s dream was fulfilled, as Bro. Neal McCory opened the church door for the first service at the Freetown Pentecostal Church at 6892 N. Hayes Avenue. There were twenty-five people in attendance on that Sunday morning. 

In 2005, Bro. Neal McCory retired and is now Bishop at our church. Bro. Tim Brown, his son-in-law, is presently in office as our pastor. 

Sunday School Ministry has always been a vital part of FAPC's ministry. In our early beginnings, Sis. Taylor was one of the first Sunday school teachers and youth leaders when there was only Bishop and Sis. McCory's four children. Through the years, we have grown tremendously... we now have an average of 50 children in our Sunday School department. We have around 15 Sunday school staff members.

What the FREETOWN APOSTOLIC PENTECOSTAL CHURCH Sunday School Program is about: ​​

At FAPC, the desire of our Sunday School Ministry is to see that every child feels important; and as they attend our classes, we want their learning experience to be a life changing experience that will last a lifetime. We know that Sunday school is a vital part of a child's life. Our mission is: Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6 (KJV)  Our teachers and helpers are dedicated to much prayer, and they are consecrated to teaching the love of God to the children that God has placed in our life, and they diligently work to share God's love with them. God has blessed us with many children and young people, and for that we give Him all the Glory.   Our mission is to obey the commission ... Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15.  We are looking forward to the greatest Sunday School revival at FAPC.  It is a life changing experience. Come and join us! ​
