The Archdiocesan Unbound Ministry is a ministry of healing in which a trained prayer team prays with individuals to assist them in overcoming the spiritual obstacles they encounter and take hold of greater freedom in Christ.

Individuals who come for Unbound prayer share their personal story related to the area where they sense they need freedom and are led by the prayer team through a series of prayers based on the Five Keys of Unbound: First Key: Repentance and Faith Second Key: Forgiveness Third Key: Renunciation Fourth Key: Taking Authority Fifth Key: The Father s Blessing.
