We are honored to announce the launch of our newest ministry project, The Reform-NOW Project. This project will be the heart of our kingdom-building activities within our ministry. As you can find in the Frequently asked questions page of the project website, “Reform is a personal choice to change through purposeful steps. Reform is truly not a simple “flip-of-switch.” Instead, it is a long-planned mission to plow into your local community, seed, and water. Reform is fostered by a vision to change the neighborhoods in your community. It is understanding that whether we be Protestant, Catholic, Pentecostal or non-Pentecostal, we are the Body of the Lord Jesus Christ who identify as a remnant extended beyond denominational barriers.”
