New Identity: Reformata Family of Ministers

While we bless the inauguration of  the Redeemed Community site that solely
 seeks to bridge relational connection of  former friends and members,
we wisely see the potential for confusion since it does so void of the  foundational,
historical, doctrinal,and covenantal identity that was the DNA of  the ministry and
which RFM continues to model today.

That being the concern, we are making a slight but substantive name change so as
to maintain clarity for our ministerial identity while minimizing possible secondary
connectivity through name recognition.

"Reformata" simply means the church reformed and was used as the battle cry during
the Reformational era. Thus, the term intentionally maintains covenantal continuity
with our original "agents of change" ethos while communicating the covenantal,
doctrinal and missional substance of our relational identity as a Family of Ministers.

Therefore, our "Antiochian Identity" is now  Reformata Family of Ministers
and will continue to be abbreviated as "RFM".   Shout!

For The Kings Honor!
