Leadership & Ministry Directory
The Renewed Purpose Leadership Fellowship Inc. (RPLF) Directory serves as the formal repository of verified clergy, educational regents, and active community-care officers. In strict alignment with our Acts 2 Leadership Network model, every individual listed in this directory maintains active spiritual rooting, uncompromised character standing, and verified local church field service tracking.
To protect our institutional focus, curriculum containment, and corporate identity, our fellowship completely sidesteps generalized title clutter. Instead, all active leadership assets, supervisors, and community advocates are systematically cataloged and listed under three historical, auditable structural tiers:
Vetted Institutional Hierarchy Listings
The Office of the Executive Director & Moderator
The central point of operational, corporate, and legal sovereignty for the fellowship. This office reviews all regional grant proposals, clears credit transferability audits, and maintains ultimate oversight of all global cohort-tracking pipelines.
Vetted Regents (Regional Academic & Operational Supervisors)
Advanced leaders listed in this directory are formally authorized to manage localized student cohorts, coordinate weekly peer accountability logs, and supervise the execution of regional field service. Regents possess verified expertise in institutional non-profit architecture, ensuring that all local training extensions operate in full structural compliance.
Canons of the Faith & Almoners of the Church (Advanced Leadership & Practice)
The senior tier of our fellowship’s marketplace and spiritual presence. Canons are formally commissioned as guardians of our historic Reformed theological baseline and catechism tracks. Almoners are deployed as certified advocates for preventive health, active wellness, and financial transitivity, fully equipped to coordinate peer-support counseling and distribute crowdfunded medical-trauma tools directly into active crisis fields.
