N2  - Since 2003 the Moody Church in Chicago has strategically implemented a comprehensive model for congregational ministry to meet the needs of over 250 women experiencing family violence. This paper outlines the four-phase process used in developing the Set Free Ministries, a comprehensive faith-centered domestic violence program situated in a large urban congregation. Additionally, the authors describe the variety of interventions used, as well as the breakthroughs and challenges that women and families face when struggling with all types of abuse and violence. The paper closes with an outcome testimony exemplifying the struggles women encounter when confronting family violence.
