About RMI
Reformers
Ministries International is an Apostolic Network that provides covering
for churches, ministries, and five-fold ministry gifts and exists to
facilitate and nurture meaningful relationships among member ministers,
ministries, and churches, enabling them to be more effective in their
calling for the purpose of building and multiplying strong local
churches and ministries around the world.
Our Vision
The Reformers Ministries International (RMI) is an apostolic network of churches, ministries and cutting-edge leaders and ministers around the world. It is an interdenominational ministry with an IRS 501(C)3 recognition. Reformers Ministries International consists of two groups, Reformers Ministries International Network and Reformers Ministries International Church Fellowship. The RMI Network is open for participation with cross-denominational affiliates and ministry networks already practicing apostolic and ecclesiastical structure. The RMI Church Fellowship consists of those independent churches which have submitted themselves directly under the apostolic and ecclesiastical leadership of Reformers Ministries International and hold no other denominational affiliations.
Reformers Ministries International Church Fellowship maintains a separate oversight structure, which includes regional apostolic overseers appointed by the governing apostolic teams in designated geographical regions. The network is primarily fraternal, where the Fellowship is fraternal, and ecclesiastical in nature and function. It does not matter if you are an affiliate of other networks, or an independent church or ministry seeking an apostolic covering, we have room for you. Both the Network and the Church Fellowship is designed to bring supportive strength to existing churches, ministries leadership teams around the world. It is based on relational accountability and provides apostolic covering to churches, leaders and ministries. It is the coming together of churches, ministries and leaders of like passions, challenging one another to birth the purposes of God.

"RMI IS DESIGNED FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROMOTING HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS AMONG LIKE-MINDED LEADERS."
Relationship to Fathering Ministries
RMI is committed to the principle of providing fatherly nurture and care to its membership. Not only will there be regional leaders available to each new member, but the entire apostolic team and other designated nurturing ministries will be available to the members of RMI for counsel, encouragement, wisdom, and fellowship.
Relationship to Other RMI Members
RMI desires to be a catalyst in bringing ministries and churches together in the area of fellowship. It is our prayer that as time goes on many interpersonal relationships will develop among RMI members. These relationships will happen spontaneously as we associate one with another, visit each other's churches, see each other in regional meetings and get involved with each other's churches.
