The Set Free Ministries Alcohol & Drug Rehabilitation Program
2 Peter 1:2-11
5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Surrounded by the expansive beauty of Wyoming’s backcountry, participants in the program gain access to nature as part of their journey toward healing, connection, and freedom.
Those in the program live in a 7 bedroom house on Frank and Karen's ranch together where they are accompanied by a live-in counselor.
Program Cost
The Set Free program is free of charge for those seeking help. All expenses are generously covered by the Robbins family, the local Agape Church congregation, and supportive contributions from the surrounding community and private donors.
Meet Frank and Karen Robbins
The program is made possible by Frank and Karen Robbins, the ranch owners who have dedicated their lives to helping people find freedom from addiction.
Frank, the pastor of Agape Church, founded Set Free Ministries on the ranch 9 years ago. Together, Frank and Karen have transformed portions of their property to house program participants, giving them a safe, nurturing environment and a fresh start.
